Rake and Rambling Boy

歌詞

I'm a rake and a ramblin' boy There's many a city I did enjoy And now I married me a pretty little wife I loved her dearer than I loved my life She was pretty both neat and gay She caused me rob the road highway I robbed it yes I do declare I made myself ten thousand there My mother said she's all alone My sister said she has no home My wife she's left in sad despair With a broken heart and a baby there And when I die, don't bury me at all Just place me away in alcohol My forty-four lay by my feet Tell everyone I am just asleep I'm a rich but a rambling boy Too many a city I did enjoy And now I married me a pretty little wife I loved her dearer than I loved my life
