D                              G                  D 
For years and years I rambled drank my wine and   gambled 
G              D              A      D 
But one day I thought I would settle down 
D                        G                    D 
I had met a perfect lady she said she'd be my baby 
E                                             A   A7 
Now we built a cottage  down in the old home town 
D         
Somehow I can't give up my good old rambling ways 
E                                  A    
The railroad trains are calling me away 
  D              D7 
I may be rough I may be wild 
 G                
I may be tough but that's just my way style 
  D                E                   A    D                     
I can't give up my good old rough and rowdy ways

Somehow I can't give up my good old rambling ways 
E                                  A    
The railroad trains are calling me away 
  D              D7 
I may be rough I may be wild 
 G                
I may be tough but that's just my way style 
  D                E                   A    D                     
I can't give up my good old rough and rowdy ways
