Git along lyrics

I left my home when I was younger

Started out to stave off hunger

Git along, git along, git along, ramble on, on, on

Tried to steal, tried to gamble

Got in bad in 'er had to ramble

Git along, git along, git along, ramble on, on, on

When I feel that chilly wind start blowing

I start out and don't care where I'm going, going

Start to laugh, live for laughter

I don't care what happens after

Git along, git along, git along, ramble on, on, on

The birds are flying by my door (my door)

They're worried so, they're flying low (they're flying low)

Something bad is bound to happen

It ain't gonna catch me nappin'

Git along, git along, git along, ramble on

The river's rising on the sand (on the sand)

My woman's found another man (she has quit you, boy)

It's time for me to start to wander

Got to get from here to yonder

Git along, git along, git along, ramble on, on, on

When I feel that chilly wind start blowing

I start out and don't care where I'm going, going

Oh, ramble, ramble, ramble, rover, when I die I'm dead all over

Git along, git along, git along, ramble on, on, on
