Lyrics

[Intro]
| C | - | - | - |

[Verse 1]
          C
I've been down to Mississippi
Down through New Orleans
Yes I have
     F
I've played in California
                               C
There ain't too much I haven't seen
No there ain't
            G
Lord, I'm a ramblin' man
                                  C
Don't fool around with a ramblin' man

[Verse 2]
           C
Left a girl in West Virginia
Up there where that green grass grows
Yes I did
          F
Got a girl in Cincinatti
                             C
Waitin' where the Ohio River flows
Oh, girl
      G
I'm a ramblin' man
                                    C
Don't give your heart to a ramblin' man
           F
You better move away

[Chorus]
                                      C
You're standing too close to the flame
       F
Once I mess with your mind
                               C
Your little heart won't be the same
          G
But I'm a ramblin' man
                                        C
Don't mess around with and ol' ramblin' man
You better not

[Verse 3]
G C      C
   Well, up in Chicago
I was known as quite a boy
Yes I was
F
Down in Alabama
                        C
They call me the man of joy
Still do
            G
Well, I'm a ramblin' man
                                   C
Don't fall in love with a ramblin' man
           F
You better move away

[Chorus]
                                 C
You're standing too close to the flame
     F
Once I mess with your mind
                           C
Your little heart won't be the same
        G
But I'm a ramblin' man
                                   C    C
Don't mess around with and ol' ramblin' man
