Just like Jack and Jill, Mama told the sailor
The grass ain't greener, the wine ain't sweeter
Ramble on Rose
Just like Jack and Jill, Papa told the jailer
Did you say your name was Ramblin' Rose?
One go up, and one go down, do yourself a favor
Did you say your name was Ramblin' Rose?
Did you say your name was Ramblin' Rose?
Sittin' plush with a royal flush, aces back to back
Ramble on, baby, settle down easy
I know this song, it ain't never gonna end
I'm gonna sing you a hundred verses in ragtime
Ramble on, baby, settle down easy
Just like Mary Shelley, just like Frankenstein
Take you to the leader of the band
Ramble on, baby, settle down easy
Did you say your name was Ramblin' Rose?
Ramble on, baby, settle down easy
Just like Crazy Otto, just like Wolfman Jack
Either side of the hill
I know this song, it ain't never gonna end
Take you to the leader of the band
Gonna march you up and down the local county line
I'm gonna sing, a hundred verses in ragtime
Ramble on Rose
One heat up, and one cool down, leave nothin' for the tailor
Just like New York City, just like Jericho
Good-bye, Mama and Papa, good-bye, Jack and Jill
Ramble on Rose
Gonna march you up and down along the county line
Pace the halls and climb the walls, get out when they blow
Break your chains and count your change and try to walk the line
