Ragged But Right - Riley Pucket

(D) I come here to tell you people I'm (A) ragged but right
I'm a thief and a gambler, I get (D) drunk every night
It's a (G) porterhouse steak three times a (D) day for my (B7) board
That's (E7) more than any flatfoot in (A) this town can afford

A (D) big electric fan to keep me (A) cool while I sleep
A mattress full of $100 (D) bills at my feet
I'm a (G) rambler and a gambler and I'm (D) lit up every (B7) night
I (E7) tell you boys I'm (A) ragged but (D) right

I go everywhere, I don't pay no fare
I can ride a freight train just (G) any(A)where
(D) If I win or lose, (G) I don't get the blues
I'm a (D) ramblin' (A) joker, that's (D) me.

I hopped on a freight train in North Caroline
Rode down to Atlanta and bought me some shine
Went into a card game with 39 cents
Came out with enough for another month's rent

Well you may think I'm bragging but don't get me wrong
I can't run for office while I'm singing this song
I'm a thief and a gambler and I'm drunk every night
I tell you boys I'm ragged but right.
