Didn't he ramble.... he rambled
|
Rambled all around.... in and out of town
|
Didn't he ramble....didn't he ramble
|
He rambled till the butcher cut him down
|
|
His feet was in the market place..his head was in the street
|
Lady pass him by, said..look at the market meat
|
He grabbed her pocket book..and said I wish you well
|
She pulled out a forty-five..said I'm head of personnel
|
|
Didn't he ramble...I said he rambled
|
Rambled all around...in and out of town
|
Didn't he ramble...oh didn't he ramble
|
He rambled till the butcher shot him down
|
|
(instrumental break)
|
|
He slipped into the cat house..made love to the stable
|
Madam caught him cold..said I'll pay you when I be able
|
Six months had passed ..and she stood all she could stand
|
She said buddy when I'm through with you
|
Ole groundhog gonna be shakin yo' hand
|
|
And didn't he ramble...he rambled
|
Rambled all around...in and out of town
|
Oh didn't he ramble......he rambled
|
You know he rambled...till the butcher...cut him down
|
|
I said he rambled..lord...'till the butcher shot him down
|
