Rake and Ramblin' Man Songtext
von Don Williams

I ran into an old friend of mine the other day
We hadn′t seen each other for quite a while
What he had to say to me hit me pretty hard
'Cause I think a lot of folks get started this way

He said, I thought it will be so easy
Another one-night stand
She seems so warm and willing
Writing in the palm of my hand
Now it three months ago last Wednesday
Since I woke up in her bed
Lord, I think I love her
But it scares me half to death

′Cause you know I'ma rake and rambling man
Fears an eagle flies
But look at me now and tell me the truth
Do I look like a daddy to you
Oh, do I look like a daddy to you


Now she is feeling sick in the mornings
She can't get into her genes
I spent my last ten dollars
Bought her a second hand ring
I start to work next Monday
′Cause I just can′t let her down
I have had me some good times
But it's all changing now

You know I′ma rake and rambling man
Fears an eagle flies
But look at me now and tell me the truth
Do I look like a daddy to you
Oh, do I look like a daddy to you
You know I'ma rake and rambling man
Fear as an eagle flies
But look at me now and tell me the truth
Do I look like a daddy to you
Oh, do I look like a daddy to you
