Poem Artwork

Ramblers and Rings Don稚 Mix


By Felix Perry


 


Key G (capo 2nd fret)


 


I値l throw in my old guitar, a Coleman stove and lamp


A rain suit and a pillow to make each night a happy camp


Musty smelling sleeping bag, some canned beans and some tea


This old truck has a few miles left for the rambling side of me


 


Chorus:


The rambling side of me, longs to be set free


Theirs a yearning in my heart and I知 sorry we must part


But the rambling side of me, longs to be set free


Time to hit the highway I hear it calling me


 


My leaky little dome tent will cover me at night


A campfire for a stage setting when I need some light


I値l make friends along the byways who値l stop to hear me sing


Give me back my old coat and I値l give you back this ring

Last of the old rambles here. Sounds goods for an old soul. I am trying to picture the woman's reply. Happy trails era. Wonder what a modern day rambler would meet. It's a great start here. Love the idea. Lady J

Fee,
LOVE this song and I've always been a fan of Hank Williams. I still play his old records. He had a voice like no other. This is one of your best, my friend.

Many blessings,

Boy if some country singer doesn't contact you they are missing a great bet. These lyrics are much better than ones I've been hearing sung lately. You have a real talent in this genre and certainly in all your work.

That kind of music is dying, killed by the modern and hysterical cacophony that's only noise, no rhytm, no humming afterwards, just the sound of a musician falling dead over his instrument among the idiotisc cheering of too stoned crowd to care.
If you hear a clopetyclop, its my horse taking me away from the irritant "noise"
Thanks for the words and taking Hank Williams back.
Georg
