I'm a young sidewinder A high note finder A fiddler, a gypsy, and a wandering soul I'm a little bit crazy A little bit lazy I don't feel at home unless I'm on the road
[Chorus:] I've got ramblin' fever down deep in my bones From backroads and byways to places unknown From wasteland to Graceland or ever I roam I'm never alone on the road I'm a cigarette smoker A corny joke joker But I can get mean when my back's on the wall I'm a helluva drinker A weird thought thinker I do things my way or no way at all
[Chorus]
I can get mighty squirrelly A little bit surly But everything changes when you're moving along Uncomfortable silence We'll leave that behind us And write it all down in the words of a song
[Chorus]
I've got Willie and Waylon And Haggard and Jones Lefty and Shaver and Kristofferson Passing by white lines reminds me of home I'm never alone on the road I'm never alone on the road
