Ragged But Right

Well, I've come here to tell you, folks, I'm ragged but I'm right

I'm a tramp and a rounder, I stay out late at night

A porterhouse steak three times a day for my board

That's more than any loafer in this big town can afford

Well, an electric fan to keep me cool while I sleep

A little baby boy to play around daddy's feet

I'm a rambler, I'm a gambler and I lead a healthy life

'Cause I tell you, folks, I'm ragged, but I'm right

Now, when I got married, I knew I'd settle down

And build a little love nest right here in my hometown

So, now I've got a family, one that I'm proud of

I know that I'll be happy 'cause they're the ones I love

Well, an electric fan to keep me cool while I sleep

A little baby boy to play around daddy's feet

I'm a rambler, I'm a gambler and I lead a healthy life
