I'm gonna quit rambling gambling stayin' out late at night I'm gonna go home where I belong and I'm gonna act right Today I got a letter from my wife and her lawyer friend It said they know everything I've been doing And they know every place that I've been They even had a bunch of pictures of me on a dance hall floor Then it went on to say if I didn't act right They could dig up a little bit more I'm gonna quit rambling... [ Steel ] I turned the page right nervously and I slowly took a peek The money that they had me for I'd have to work a ten day week Well it ain't that I'm a coward I've always been pretty tough But honey you know I still love you how come you want to play so rough I'm gonna quit rambling... I'm gonna quit rambling...
