| E | D | |
| Cause I was born l | onely down by the | riverside |
| A | E | |
| Learned to spin | fortune wheels, and throw | dice |
| E | 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 | |
| Ain't good l | ooking, but you know I | ain't shy |
| A | E | |
| Ain't afraid to | look it girl, hear me | out |
| E | D | |
| So if you need some | lovin, and you need it | right away |
| A | E | |
| Take a little | time out, and maybe | I'll stay |
| Chorus: |
| E | D | |
| But I got to | ramble (ramblin' | man) |
| A | E | |
| Oh I got to | gamble (gamblin' | man) |
| E | D | |
| Got to got to | ramble (ramblin' | man) |
| A | E | |
| I was born a | ramblin' gamblin' | man |
| E | // | D | // | A | // | E | |
| Ye | ah | al | rig | ht | br | ing it on now here we go now now |
| E | D | |

| A | E | |
