Rake And Ramblin' Man

I ran into an old friend of mine the other day

We hadn't seen each other for quite a while

What he had to say to me hit me pretty hard

'Cause I think a lot of folks get started this way, he said.

I thought it would be so easy

Another one-night stand

She seemed so warm and willing

Right in the palm of my hand

Now its three months ago last Wednesday

Since I woke up in her bed

Lord, I think I love her,

But it scares me half to death.

'Cause you know I'm a rake and a ramblin' man

Free as an eagle flies

Well, look at me now and tell me true

Do I look like a daddy to you?

Oh, do I look like a daddy to you?

Now she's feeling' sick in the mornings,

She can't get into her jeans

I spent my last ten dollars,

Bought her a second hand ring

I start to work next Monday,

Cause I just can't let her down

I've had me some good times,

But it's all changin' now.
