Dr. John - Didn't He Ramble lyrics

Didn't he ramble, didn't he ramble Rambled all around, in and out of town Didn't he ramble, didn't he ramble He rambled till the butcher cut him down His feet was in the market, his head was in the street Lady pa** him by, said "look at the market meat" He grabbed her pocket book and said I wish you well She pulled out a 32 and said, "I'll see you first in hell!" Didn't he ramble, didn't he ramble Rambled all around, in and out of town Didn't he ramble, didn't he ramble He rambled till the butcher cut him down sponsored links He slipped into the cat house, made love to the stable Madam caught him cold, said "I'll pay you when I be able" Six months had pa**ed and she stood all she could stand She said when I'm through with you, "the groundhog gonna shake your hand" And he rambled, didn't he ramble Rambled all around, in and out of town Didn't he ramble, didn't he ramble He rambled till the butcher cut him down
