My Rambling Heart Jim Reeves Songtext
von Jim Reeves

I may be a drifter who wandered from the start
But I saw all the sights there are to touch the human heart
They say that I′m a gypsy and I'm a ramblin′ man
But it grew wise my rambling heart since my wanderin' life began

I know life and I know love, I felt the good and bad
I've met the true, I′ve met the blue, I′ve met the gay and sad
I know the fears, I've seen the tears that untrue hearts can bring
I saw the joy of girl and boy when true love makes them sing


I have known the bitter and I have known the sweet
And I once knew the broken heart, a life so incomplete
But now my heart′s contented, it's happy just to roam
For it grew wise my ramblin′ heart now the open road's my home

I met those who found true love whose hearts were full of song
I met the bluest hearts untrue who were payin′ for their wrong
I hear some laugh, I hear some cry through the towns I roam
But it's too wise my ramblin' heart and the open road′s my home

I may be a drifter who wandered from the start
But I saw all the sights there are to touch the human heart
They say that I′m a gypsy and I'm a ramblin′ man
But it grew wise my rambling heart since my wanderin' life began


I know life and I know love, I felt the good and bad
I′ve met the true, I've met the blue, I′ve met the gay and sad
I know the fears, I've seen the tears that untrue hearts can bring
I saw the joy of girl and boy when true love makes them sing
