Chord Req: Ragged but Right (from Riley Puckett)

OK folks
I'm looking for help with the Riley Puckett version.
I searched hither and yon and came up with loads of lyrics and some chords, but the chorus is a little tricky.
I've got the verses working fine in a C fingering, but the chorus is really throwing me.
As a reminder, this is the section I'm looking to chord:

I go everywhere, I don't pay no fare
I can ride a freight train just anywhere
If I win or lose, I don't get no blues
Oh it's gambling and rollling for me

Thanks again.
Geez I love this place!

The Riley Puckett recording seems to be in the key of F#. but here is the bridge in C:
Remember to play four down strokes between each bracket(each bracket is a measure)

|C G7/C C/
I go everywhere,

C G7/C C/
I don't pay no fare

C C/C C/ D7 D7/G7 G7/
I can ride a freight train just anywhere

C C/C7 C7/ F F/ Fm Fm/
If I win or lose, I don't get no blues

C C/ D7 G7/ C C/ C G7|
Oh it's gambling and rollling for me!
