"Ragged But Right" lyrics

"Ragged But Right"

I come here to tell you that I'm ragged but right
Thief and a gambler, I get drunk every night
I eat a porterhouse steak three times a day for my board
More than any loafer in this town can afford
Big electric fan to keep me cool while I sleep
Little baby girl dancing round at my feet
I am a rambling gambler, I get drunk every night
Boys, you know I'm ragged but right

I go everywhere, I don't pay no fare
I could ride a freight train anywhere
If I win or lose, I don't get no blues
That's rambling and rolling for me

Well I never got married I'll never settle down
Never spent more than one night in any one town
I've got no family and no place to call home
But I'll stay happy as long as I roam

I come here to tell you that I'm ragged but right
Thief and a gambler, I get drunk every night
I eat a porterhouse steak three times a day for my board
More than any loafer in this town can afford
Big electric fan to keep me cool while I sleep
Little baby girl dancing round at my feet
I am a rambling gambler, I get drunk every night
Boys, you know I'm ragged but right

Boys, you know I'm ragged but right
Boys, you know I'm ragged but right
Boys, you know I'm ragged but right
