I’m Ragged But I’m Right

Lyrics

[Verse]
Well I’ve come here to tell you folks I’m ragged but I’m right
I’m a tramp and a gambler I stay out late at night
But a porterhouse steak three times a day for my board
That’s more than any loafer in this big town can afford
Well I got an electric fan to keep me cool while I sleep
A little baby boy playing around at my feet
I’m a rambler and a gambler and I’ve lead a dirty life
Well I tell you folks
I’m ragged but I’m right
Well then I got married I knew I’d settle down
And I built a little love nest right here in my hometown
Now I’ve got a family one that I’m proud of
I know that we’ll be happy because they’re the ones I love
Got a big electric fan to keep me cool while I sleep
I tell you folks I’m ragged but I’m right

[Outro]
I’m a rambler and a gambler I’ve lead a dirty life
Well I tell you folks I’m ragged but I’m right
