Alan Lomax - Rambling Gambler lyrics

I'm a rambler and a gambler And a long ways from home If the people don't like me They can leave me alone Oh, it's dark and it's a-rainin' And the moon gives no light My pony won't travel On this dark road at night Go put up your pony And give him some hay Come take your seat by me Just as long as you stay My pony isn't hungry No, he won't eat your hay We're headed for Wyoming We're gonna graze on the way I used to have me a pretty little sweetheart Her age was nineteen She was the flower of Belton And the rose of Saline But her parents were against me And now she is the same If I'm on your book, love Won't you blot out my name I'm a rambler and a gambler And a long ways from home If the people don't like me They can leave me alone Oh, it's dark and it's a-rainin' And the moon gives no light My pony won't travel On this dark road at night
