All my life I've been a traveling man
All my life I've been a traveling man
Staying alone and doing the best I can
I hauled my trunk down to Tennessee
I hauled my trunk down to Tennessee
It's hard to tell about a men like me

I met a girl I couldn't get her off my mind
I met a girl I couldn't get her off my mind
She passed me up said she didn't like my kind
I'm scared to bother around her house at night
I'm scared to bother around her house at night
She is got a police dog and he's spoilin' for a fight
His name is Rambler and when he gets the chance
His name is Rambler and when he gets the chance
He leaves his marks on everybody's pants
Yes I think I'll travel, I think I'll let her be
I think I'll travel, I think I'll let her be
Before she sicks that police dog on me
Before she sicks that dog on, dog on me
