rake and rambling boy

Lyrics

, well i'm a rake and ramblin' boy. there's many a city i did enjoy, and now i've married me a pretty little wife, and i love her dearer than i love my life. oh, she was pretty, both neat and gay, caused me to rob the broad highway, oh, yes, i robbed it, i do declare. and i got myself ten thousand bail. oh when i die don't bury me at all, place my bones in alcohol, and at my feet place a snow white dove, to let the world know i died for love. well i'm a rake and a ramblin' boy. there's many a city i did enjoy, and now i've married me a pretty little wife, and i love her dearer than i love my life. and i love her dearer than i love my life.
