Here you are then - just type a couple of words you are sure are in it is the Digital Tradition Lyrics Search up the top, and see what you come up with.

But since you're a visitor, and we'd like you to stay, click here and read it: RAMBLIN' ROVER

Mind you I seem to have the words as "sober men of twenty and drunken men in plenty", which strikes me as more in keeping with the paradoxical nature of the words in general. And with the notion that you're as old or as young as you feel like feeling.

So is my version the variant or the earlier one? And does anyone know anything more about the song?
