Lyrics

I'm a little bit crazy, because I'm a Rambling Man. Out on the road, doing the best I can.

I'm not one for a daytime job and I'm a bit of a slob anyway.

Here's one from the road again, sending my love, wishing you all the best.
I'm good as I always am, doing my job, missing you all the same.

Colorado's kind of hot this time of year and I miss you dear every day.
Just one more stop and I'll be right home. And you won't be alone. And I'll stay.
