ramblin' jack elliott - take me home lyrics
johnny cash: hey, glad to see you, buddy. glad to see you. you got tuned up there? i got a singing welcome for you
(tuning)
jack: there, i’m tuned up
cash (singing):
ramblin’ jack, ramblin’ jack
i sure am glad that you could ramble back
jack (singing):
well, my boots are dusty and my heads a mess
i just flew in from the west
cash (singing):
well, i was talkin bout you and somebody said
i believe ramblin’ jack’s dead
jack (singing):
well, that somebody must’ve been crazy as h+ll
cause you’d be the first guy i’d tell
(laughing)
cash:
well strap your self into gear a g, bubba, and sing a song with me
both (singing):
take me home
my heart is heavy and my feet are sorе
take me home
i don’t wanna roam no morе
cash: sing it, jack!
jack:
well i been from boston to l.a
seen boulder dam and frisco bay
new york and washington
i seen montreal and saskatchewan
been to rhode island
and i worked in three all night service stations
and i drove a truck
both (singing):
why don’t you take me home
my heart is heavy and my feet are sore
take me home
i don’t wanna roam no more
cash:
well i slept all night in a water trough
had the flu and the croup and the whoopin cough
i had the mumps and the measles and the seven year itch
and i cain’t count the times i had a cold and a sour throat
not to mention every time i cut my finger on a sardine can
both (singing):
why don’t you take me home
my heart is heavy and my feet are sore
take me home
i don’t wanna roam no more
cash: sing it, jack
jack:
well i can see em all now
just a gatherin round
mama’s supper table
when the sun goes down
cash:
and my good old pappy
when the blessings said
fillin up his plate
with black+eyed peas and all that stuff
jack:
and a side of meat!
cash:
and a great big helping
of my dear sweet momma’s hot b+ttered cornbread
both (singing):
why don’t you take me home
my heart is heavy and my feet are sore
take me home
i don’t wanna roam no more
i don’t wanna roam no more
i don’t wanna roam no more
