[Verse 1]
He was a man and a friend always
He stuck with me in the hard old days
He never cared if I had no dough
We rambled 'round in the rain and snow
[Chorus]
And here's to you, my ramblin' boy
May all your ramblin' bring you joy
Here's to you, my ramblin' boy
May all your ramblin' bring you joy
[Verse 2]
In Tulsa town we chanced to stray
We thought we'd try to work one day
The boss said he had room for one
Says my old pal, "We'd rather bum!"
[Chorus]
And here's to you, my ramblin' boy
May all your ramblin' bring you joy
Here's to you, my ramblin' boy
May all your ramblin' bring you joy
[Verse 2]
Late one night in a jungle camp
The weather it was cold and damp
He got the chills and he got 'em bad
They took the only friend I had
[Chorus]
And here's to you, my ramblin' boy
May all your ramblin' bring you joy
Here's to you, my ramblin' boy
May all your ramblin' bring you joy
[Verse 3]
He left me here to ramble on
My ramblin' pal is dead and gone
If when we die, we go somewhere
I'll bet you a dollar he's ramblin' there
[Chorus]
So here's to you, my ramblin' boy
May all your ramblin' bring you joy
Here's to you, my ramblin' boy
May all your ramblin' bring you joy
And here's to you, my ramblin' boy
May all your ramblin' bring you joy
Here's to you, my ramblin' boy
May all your ramblin' bring you joy
