|
You have sailed the sparkling watersof the shady sandy coast of |
|
Carolina.From the rock bound coast of |
|
Mainedown past |
|
Virgina to the sunny |
|
Florida keys. |
|
You have chased the whistling wind alongthe painted canyon walls of |
|
Colorado.And you followed that big river from |
|
Saint Paul to where she flows into the sea. |
|
You have seen the early sun light kissthe blue grass on a cold |
|
Kentucky morning. |
|
And the Palomino oceans of the |
|
Kansaswheat field when the west wind blows. |
|
You're a gypsy, loose and runningchasing rainbows in the |
|
Mississippi sunset. |
|
Just a number one hell raiser with thetaste for whiskey, women and the road. |
|
And there ain't no ramblers anymore,and you can take that for what it's worth. |
|
Seems like everybody's jet'nthey ain't got time to touch the earth. |
|
I guess their feet don't get to itchinwhen they hear the whistle blow. |
|
They ain't crossed the |
|
Chattahoochee. |
|
And there ain't no ramblers anymore. |
|
You have heard the lonesome rattle of themidnight freight train in the easy hours. |
|
You've been burned by |
|
Arizona sun,stood shivering in the |
|
Minnesota snow. |
|
You have smelled the sweet magnolia blossomperfume in a |
|
Alabama evening. |
|
You've stood drunk beside the highway and wishedta hell ya' still had some place left to go. |
|
Cause there ain't no ramblers anymore, |
|
At least not like there use to be. |
|
Everybody's on vacation,or watching something on |
|
T.V.They ain't ever been to |
|
Tuscon,or been in jail in |
|
Mexico.They ain't ever going to |
|
Boise.Cause there ain't no ramblers anymore. |
|
Cause there ain't no ramblers anymore. |
