"Ramblin' Gal" lyrics

"Ramblin' Gal"

Well I used to be a ramblin' gal
Oh but I got tired and I settled down
A long long ways my feet did trod
Till the life got heavy and the times got hard

I've been out east and I've been out west
But the southern states are ones I love the best
Alabam, Mississipp, Louisianne
Oh the Carolines, Tennessee and Georgia's kind

Well in California, I nearly lost my head
I wound up wishin' that I was dead
But when I reached that old Cheyenne
I was feeling clear, wanted to live again

Well I shed a tear in nearly every state
Just wandering down that lost highway
And now the open road starts to callin' me
But there ain't no place that I wanna be

Yes I used to be a ramblin' gal
Oh but I got tired and I settled down
