Here's a couple of western swing instrumentals that are not without their charm:

Rambler's rag - Bill Boyd

Rambler's stomp - Doug Bine


It is interesting that when Charlie Poole reworked and recorded WC Handy's 'Beale Street Blues',
he titled it 'Ramblin' Blues':

Ramblin' Blues

Riley Puckett's doleful 'Ramblin' Boy' has mixed emotions, but ultimately blames the women.

Ramblin' Boy

My favourite of the genre is Hank Williams' 'Ramblin' Man, mentioned above, which he recorded as Luke the Drifter.

Ramblin' Man

Steve Young did a splendid cover recording:
