I’m Ragged But I’m Right lyrics
by Bruce Springsteen
[Verse 1]
Well, I've come here to tell you folks, I'm ragged but I'm right
I'm a tramp and a gambler, I stay out late at night
But a porterhouse steak three times a day for my board
That's more than any loafer in this big town can afford
[Chorus]
Well, I got an electric fan to keep me cool while I sleep
A little baby boy playing 'round at my feet
I'm a rambler and a gambler, I've led a dirty life
Well, I tell you folks, I'm ragged but I'm right
[Verse 2]
Well, then I got married, I knew I'd settle down
And I built a little love nest right here in my hometown
Now I've got a family, one that I'm proud of
I know that we'll be happy, 'cause they're the ones I love
[Chorus]
Got a big electric fan to keep me cool while I sleep
A little baby boy playing 'round Daddy's feet
I'm a rambler and a gambler, I've led a dirty life
I tell you folks, I'm ragged but I'm right
[Refrain]
I tell you folks, I'm ragged but I'm right
I'm a rambler and a gambler, I've led a dirty life
But I tell you folks, I'm ragged but I'm right
