I got ramblin', I got ramblin' on my mind
Little boy, little boy, I got ramblin' on my mind
I hate to leave you, baby, but you treat me so unkind

I got mean things, I got mean things on my mind
I got mean things, I got mean things on my mind
I hate to leave you, baby, but you treat me so unkind

I'm goin' pack up my bags, I'm goin' leave in the morning train
I'm goin' pack up my bags, I'm goin' leave in the morning train
I hate to hear it, baby, when you call me so-and-so's name

I'm goin' down to the station, catch the fastest metal train I see
I'm goin' down to the station, catch the fastest metal train I see
I got the blues for Mr. So-And-So, he ain't got the blues about me

Well there's one thing, baby, makes me begin to drink
The way you treat me, baby, oh... I begin to think
Ramblin' on my mind
I hate to leave you, baby, but you treat me so unkind

I got ramblin', I got ramblin' on my mind
I got ramblin', oh... I got ramblin' on my mind
I hate to leave you, baby, but you treat me so unkind
