Ramblin' around your city Ramblin' around your town I never see a friend I know As I go ramblin' around, boys As I go ramblin' around My sweetheart and my parents I left in my old home town I'm out to do the best I can As I go ramblin' around, boys As I go ramblin' around The peach trees they are loaded, The limbs are bending down, I pick 'em all day for a dollar, boys As I go ramblin' around As I go ramblin' around Sometimes the fruit gets rotten Falls down on the ground There's a hungry mouth for every peach As I go ramblin' around, boys As I go ramblin' around I wish that I could marry I wished I could settle down But I cain't save a penny, boys As I go ramblin' around As I go ramblin' around My mother prayed that I would be A man of some renown But I am just a refugee As I go ramblin' around, boys As I go ramblin' around
