I've got rambling
I've got rambling all on my mind
I've got rambling
I've got rambling all on my mind
I hate to leave my baby
'Cause she treats me so unkind

I'm going down to the station
Catch the fastest train I see
I'm going down to the station
Catch the fastest train I see
I got the blues 'bout miss so-and-so
And her son's got the blues about me

Have you ever loved a woman
So much you tremble in pain?
Have you ever loved a woman
So much you tremble in pain?
And all the time you know
She bears another man's name

But you carry on lovin' that woman
So much it's a shame and a sin
You keep on lovin' that woman
So much it's a
But all the time you know
She belongs to your very best friend
