A               D      G 
Livin' on the road
             A 
Livin' into miles
 A            D      G 
Weather gets cold
               A    
You head down south

 A         D       G 
Head down south
                     A   
You work a month or so
 A                D       G 
Stay drunk for a while
                    A   
'til the money runs low

[Intro]
 A                  D 
Laid down with the dogs
 G                A 
You woke up with fleas
 A                  D         G 
Your mama tried to tell you
                   A  
You didn't pay no heat

 A                 D 
You didn't pay no heat
         G                A  
You can do it all back then
 A                        D 
You would never gonna get old
           G               A 
You would never gonna give in 

[Chorus]
 A                     G                D 
You ain't never gonna walk that line
                   A 
Don't care if the sun don't shine
                   G 
Don't care if you ain't got a dime
       D                   A   
Gonna do what you wanna do

 A             G             D 
Move on to another town
                        A 
Burn all those bridges down
     A              G      
The only thing you keep around
        D                   A 
Is the low down ramblin' blues

[Intro]

           A                 D      G 
You don't stay around too long
               A 
You won't get stuck
 A                 D     G          
She was good to you
                 A 
It wasn't good enough

 A                  D       G 
She wasn't good enough
                A 
You threw her away
 A                      D   
You took up with the road
                G         A 
That's all you wanted anyway 

[Chorus]
 A                     D  
You want to party all night
      G            A 
Want party til you die
 A                    D         G 
But you party til you wake up
                A  
Break down and cry

 A             D     G  
You break and cry
             A  
That's what do
 A                 D       
'Cause your sorry life
    G               A 
Is catchin up with you

[Chorus]
 A    G    D    A  

 A           G   D                   A 
low down,   low down ramblin' blues
 A           G   D                   A 
low down.   low down ramblin' blues
