-8-8 -8 -8 -8-10 -8 -8 -8 -8 -8 -6
I can set-tle down and be do-in’ just fine
-6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -4
Til’ I hear an old train rol-lin’ down the line
-8 -8 -8 -8 -8 -10 -8 -8 -6
Then I hurry straight home and pack
-6 -6-6 -6 -6 -66 -6 -6 -6 -6 -5 -4
And if I did-n’t go I b’lieve I’d blow my stack
-8 -8 -8 -8-10 -8 -8 -8 -8 -8 -8 -6
I love you ba-by but you go-ta un-der-stand
-6 -6 -6 -6 -66 -6 -6 -6 -6-8-6 -5 -4
When the Lord made me he made a ram--- blin man
-8 -8 -8-10 -8 -8 -8 -6
Folks might say that I’m no good
-6 -6 -6 -6 -6 6 -6 -6 -6 -4
That I would-n’t set-tle down if I could
-8 -8 -8 -8 -8 -8-10 -8 -8 -8 -8 -6
But when that o-pen road starts to call-in’ me
-6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -66 -6 -6 -6 -5 -4
There’s some-thin’ o’er the hill that I got-ta see
-8 -8 -8 -8-10 -8 -8 -8 -8 -8 -8 -6
Some-times it’s hard but you got-ta un-der-stand
-6 -6 -6 -6 -66 -6 -6 -6 -6-8-6 -5 -4
When the Lord made me he made a ram---blin’ man
-8 -8 -8 -8 -8-10 -8 -8 -8 -6
Love to see the towns a pass-in’ by
-6 -6 -6 -6 -66 -6 -6 -6 -4
And to ride these rails ‘neath God’s blue sky
-8 -8 -8 -8 -8 -8-10 -8 -8 -8 -8 -8 -8 -6
Let me trav-el this land from the moun-tains to the sea
-6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6-6 -6 -6 -5 -4
‘cause that’s the life I believe he meant for me
-8 -8 -8 -8-10 -8 -8 -8 -8 -8 -6
And when I’m gone and at my grave you stand
-6 -6 -6 -6 -66 -6 -6-8-6 -5 -4
Just say God’s called home your ram---blin’ man
