I’m Ragged, but I’m Right Songtext
von George Jones

Well, I′ve a-come here to tell you folks, I'm ragged but I′m right
I'm a tramp and a rounder, I stay out late at night
A porterhouse steak three times a day for my board
That's more than any loafer in this old town can afford.
Well, a big electric fan to keep me cool while I sleep
A little baby boy to play ′round daddy′s feet
I'm a rambler, I′m a gambler and I lead every life
'Cause I tell you folks, I′m ragged but I'm right. Now, when I got married, I knew I′d settle down
And built a little love nest right here in my hometown
So now I've got a family, one that I'm proud of
I know that I′ll be happy, ′cause they're the ones I love
Well, a big electric fan to keep me cool while I sleep
A little baby boy to play ′round daddy's feet
I′m a rambler, I'm a gambler and I lead every life
I tell you folks, I′m ragged but I'm right
