Well, I'm a rake and ramblin' boy
There's many a city I did enjoy
And now I've married me a pretty, little wife
And I love her dearer than I love my life
Oh, she was pretty, both neat and gay
Caused me to rob the broad highway
Oh, yes, I robbed it, I do declare
And I got myself ten thousand bail
Well, I'm a rake and ramblin' boy
There's many a city I did enjoy
And now I've married me a pretty, little wife
And I love her dearer than I love my life
Oh, when I die, don't bury me at all
Place my bones in alcohol
And at my feet place a white-snow dove
To tell the world that I died for love
Well, I'm a rake and ramblin' boy
There's many a city I did enjoy
And now I've married me a pretty, little wife
And I love her dearer than I love my life
And I love her dearer than I love my life
