Ramblin Rover

C
Oh, there're sober men aplenty,
C
And drunkards barely twenty,
           F
There are men of over ninety
           C                Dm
That have never yet kissed a girl.
          C
But give me a ramblin' rover,
 C
And fair Orkney down to Dover.
         F               C
We will roam the country over
          F        G       C
And together we'll face the world.

[Verse 2]
 C
I've roamed through all the nations
 C
Ta'en delight in all creation,
                F
And I've tried a wee sensation
           C                Dm
Where the company, did prove kind.
          C
And when partin' was no pleasure,
 C
I've drunk another measure
         F               C
To the good friends that were 
treasure
          F        G       C
For they always are in our minds.

[Verse 3]
 C
There's many that feign enjoyment
 C
From merciless employment,
                F
Their ambition was this deployment
           C                 
From the minute they left the 
 Dm
school.
          C
And they save and scrape and ponder
 C
While the rest go out and squander,
         F               C
See the world and rove and wander
          F        G       C
And are happier as a rule.

[Verse 4]
 C
If you're bent wi' arth-i-ritis,
 C
Your bowels have got colitis,
                F
You've gallopin' with bollockitis
          C                Dm
And you're thinkin' it's time you 
died,
          C
If you been a man of action,
 C
Though you're lying there in 
traction,
         F               C
You will get some satisfaction
          F        G       C
Thinkin', "Jesus, at least I tried."
