Rake and ramblin' man


I ran into an old friend of mine the other day
We hadn't seen each other in quite a while
What he had to say to me hit me pretty hard
Cause I think a lot of folks get started this way, He said,

I thought It would be so easy, another one-nite-stand
She seemed so warm and willin', right in the palm of my hand
Its been three months ago last Wednesday, since I woke up in her bed
Lord I think I love her, But it scares me half to death

CHORUS:
You know I'm a rake and a ramblin' man,
Free as an eagle flies,
But look at me now and tell me true,
Do I look like a daddy to you?,
Oh, do I look like a daddy to you?

Now she's feelin sick in the mornings, she can't get into her jeans
I spent my last ten dollars, bought her second hand reams
I start to work next Monday, cause I just can't let her down
I've had me some good times, But its all changin' now



Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics RAKE AND RAMBLIN' MAN of DON WILLIAMS is also present in the album Country boy (1977)
