Once I had a sweetheart and our love was fair
I remember her brown eyes and her long, dark hair
I remember summer nights down at the fishin' hole
Rollin' around in the tall grass and the sweet lies we told

Chorus:
I'm rambling on, on through the night
I'm rambling on, no end in sight
I'm bound to lose my worried mind
I'm bound to leave this lonesome heart behind

Empty streets behind me, empty streets ahead
I got the needle on the red line and I'm moving on ahead
I'm just a stranger everywhere I go
I'll never leave you lonely, I'll just leave you alone

[ Chorus - x2 ]
