Ramblin' Fever

Well, my hat don't hang on the same nail too long
My ears can't stand to hear the same old song
I never leave the highway long enough, to get bogged in the mud
'Cause I've got ramblin' fever in my blood

Well, I caught this ramblin' fever long ago
When I first heard a lonesome whistle blow
If someone said I never gave a dang, they dang sure told you wrong
'Cause I've got ramblin' fever in my bones

Ramblin' fever, the kind that can't be measured by degrees
Ramblin' fever, oh there ain't no kind of cure for my disease

Well, there's times I like to sit down on the sofa
And let some pretty lady rub my back
And spend the early mornin' drinkin' coffee
And talkin' about how I'll be comin' back

But I don't let no woman tie me down
And I'll never get too old to get around

I wanna die along the highway, rot away like some old high line pole
Rest this ramblin' fever in my soul

Ramblin' fever, the kind that can't be measured by degrees
Ramblin' fever, oh there ain't no kind of cure for my disease

Ramblin' fever, the kind that can't be measured by degrees
Ramblin' fever, oh there ain't no kind of cure for my disease

No, there ain't no kind of cure for my disease
