Born For The Ramblin Road (Larry W Jones 06/20/2019) (song #7542)

Well, I was born for the ramblin’ road
Drivin’ big ‘ol trucks with heavy loads
And when they call me for haulin’
I can hear the road a-callin’
Cause I was born for the ramblin’ road

Daddy was a farmer in Georgia
But that plowin’ never was my goal
I was born with longing for ramblin’
Behind a plow I’d not be standin’
Cause I was born for the ramblin’ road

(Instrumental)

Today I’m drivin’ to New Orleans
Eight hours south of Nashville Tennessee
Stop at Lucille’s on Bayou Lafourche
Eat some good Creole gumbo cuisine
The ramblin’ road keeps on callin’ me

Drivin’ big ‘ol trucks with heavy loads
Freightliner camper is my abode
Understand that I’m a drivin’ man
Cause I was born for the ramblin’ road
Yeah, I was born for the ramblin’ road

Born for the rambling road
