My Sportin Life

G                           D
Though I can't show you the years of
 my life
       C                    G
That I spend on the road to freedom
G                         D
Don't let it throw you, I know of 
your strife
  C                      G
I know what it's like to roam
G                       D
I sang 'em a glad song, played 'em a
 sad song
C                        G
Sang 'em the whole night long
G                    D
Just for a dollar or what they could
 offer

To somebody's ramblin' boy

C                                 
When the fun was done, I would 
                    G
pack my bags and I was gone
           D                       
Though the women were kind there 
  C                     G
was nothing to bind me to one
     C        G          C       
'Til somebody changed my rough 
        G
and rowdy ways
C        G          C            
Somebody changed my ole carousing 
 G
days
   C            G           C    
Oh when I was a young boy I 
      G
learned to survive
     C        G        D         
'Til somebody came and stayed my 
         G
sportin' life

I lived in the barrooms the juke 
joints and gin mills
I worked any dive in town
Never to proud to pass my hat around
In every place I found
I'll sing you a glad song, play you 
a sad song
Sing 'em the whole night long
Just for a dollar or what you can 
offer
To somebody's ramblin' boy
