The Rambler - Black Stone Cherry

You were born

In a southern fall

It might have been sunday

But I can’t recall

All the birthdays

I must have missed

Your first steps

And your first kiss

I don’t even know

If you know my name

But you should hear the truth

Before it’s too late

So I hope this finds you

On some highway

'cause I’m an old time rambler

I call the road my home

Forgive my indiscretion

It’s the only way I know

A million miles from Kentucky

But I will always be around

So turn the radio up

When your heart breaks down

I played for tips

And I played for less

I played a pretty southern girl

Right out of her dress

She danced until the lights came on

There’s a reason she’s here

Instead of being at home

She said the songs you sang

Made the whole room cry

And that night I told

A young man’s lie

When I said I would call her

And I said I’d write

'cause I’m an old time rambler

I call the road my home

Forgive my indiscretion

It’s the only way I know

A million miles from Kentucky

But I will always be around

So turn the radio up

When your heart breaks down

Turn the radio up

When your heart breaks down

I’m sorry for the tears

I made you cry

I’m sorry for the promises

That turned to lies

If I could turn back

The hands of time

I’d take it back and try, try, try

To make you understand

That this is who I am

I met the devil in an old motel

It seems I ain’t got much of a soul to sell

My glass is empty

My hands are blue

And the doctor gave me

About a month or two

Well, I thought I would make it

To you this year

So forgive me one last time my dear

And tell your mother

I won’t be coming home

'cause I’m an old time rambler

I call the road my home

Forgive my indiscretion

It’s the only way I know

A million miles from Kentucky

But I will always be around

So turn the radio up

When your heart breaks down

Turn the radio up

When your heart breaks down
