We[D]ll, I've come here to tell you folks, [A7]I'm ragged but I'm right
I'm a tramp and a gambler, I stay o[D]ut late at night
But a P[G]orterhouse steak three times a [D]day for my [B7]board
That's more[E] than any loafer in this big [A7]town can afford
[D]Well, I've got a electric fan to keep me c[A7]ool while I sleep
A little baby boy playin' aro[D]und at my feet
I'm a ra[G]mbler and a g[G7]ambler, I've l[D]ead a dirty l[B7]ife
Well, I tell[E7] you folks I'm ragge[A7]d but I'm righ[D]t
Repeat progression over string and guitar solos.
W[D]ell, then I got married, I k[A7]new I'd settle down
And I built a little love nest right [D]here in my hometown
No[G]w, I've got a family, o[D]ne that I'm proud [B7]of
[E7]I know that we'll be happy, 'cause t[A7]hey're the ones I love
[D]I've got a big electric fan to keep me [A7]cool while I sleep
A little baby boy playin' around d[D]addy's feet
I'm a r[G]ambler and a ga[G7]mbler, I've l[B7]ead a dirty l[E7]ife
I tell [A7]you folks I'm r[D]agged but I'[B7]m r[E]ight
I tell yo[D]u folks I'm r[A7]agged but I'm r[D]ight
[D] [A7] [D]
I'm a ram[G]bler and a g[G7]ambler, I've l[B7]ead a dirty [E]life
But I tell you folks I'm r[A7]agged but I'm r[D]ight
