Rambler, Gambler lyrics

I'm a rambler, I'm a gambler I'm a long way from home And if you don't like me You can leave me alone For it's dark and it's rainin' And the moon gives no light And my pony can't travel This dark road at night Oh, i once had me a true love Her age was sixteen She was the flower of Belton And the rose of Saline But her parents didn't like me Now she's just the same If I'm writ on your books, gal Just blot out my name I'm a rambler, I'm a gambler I'm a rambler, I'm a gamble
