Rambler Gambler Songtext
von Joan Baez

I′m a rambler, I'm a gambler
I′m a long way from home
And if people don't like me
They can leave me alone

It's a dark night and it′s lonesome
The moon gives no light
My pony won′t travel
This dark road tonight


Well, I had me a little sweetheart
Her age was nineteen
She was the flower of Belton
The rose of Saline

But her parents didn't like me
Now, she is the same
If I′m writ on your book, love
Just you blot out my name

I'm a rambler, I′m a gambler
I'm a long way from home
And if people don′t like me
They can leave me alone
