E         D       A
Huh, wooh, oh yeah
E          D
Come on, give it a listen

[Verse 1]
 E                                  D
Well, I was born lonely down by the riverside
                   A                E
Learned to spin a fortune wheel and roll the dice
                                       D
And I was just thirteen when I had to leave home
                A                E
Knew I couldn't stick around, I had to roam

              E                       D
I ain't good looking, but you know I ain't shy
                 A                   E
Ain't afraid to look a girl in the eye
                     E                      D
So if you want some lovin' and you need it right now
            A                 E
Baby, just stick around, I'll show you how

[Chorus]
        E                      D
And I'm ramblin' (ramblin' man)
               A                    E
Lord, I got to gamble (gamblin' man)
          E                     D
I want to ramble (ramblin' man)
             A                   E
I was born a ramblin' gamblin' man, come on

E        A      D        E      A       D
Wooh, hey

[Verse 2]
                 E                           D
Well, I hope you got some money, sure gonna need ya some
                  A                          E
I ain't around to love you, 'cause I gotta run
              E                           D
I gotta keep moving, never gonna slow down
                  A                                E
You can have your funky world, I'll see you 'round

[Chorus]
         E                    D
I got to ramble (ramblin' man)
               A                    E
Lord, I got to gamble (gamblin' man)
              E                    D
Hey, I got to ramble (ramblin' man)
                     A                        E
'Cause I was born a ramblin' gamblin' man, wooh

         E                   D
I got to ramble (ramblin' man)
              A                   E
Baby, got to gamble (gamblin' man)
                E                    D
Wooh, I want to ramble (ramblin' man)
                      A                   E
Eh, eh, eh, I born a ramblin' gamblin' man, yeah
