I used to be a [C]ramblin' gal[G]
Oh but I got tire[Am]d, and I settled down.[C][G]
A long long way, my[C] feet did try[G]
Till the life got heavy [Am]and the times got hard. [C][G]
I've been out east, a[C]nd I've been out west[G]
But the southern states ar[Am]e the ones I love the best. [C][G]
Alabam[C], Mississip, Louisan [G]
The Carolines, Ten[Am]nessee, and Georgia's kind.[C][G]
Well in California I nearly lost my head
I wound up wishing that I was dead.
But when I reached Cheyenne
I was feeling clear wanted to live again.
Well I shed a tear in nearly every state
Just wandering down that lost highway.
Now the open road, starts to calling me
But there ain't no place that I want to be.
Yes I used to be a ramblin' gal
Oh but i got tired and I settled down.
