I`m just a roustabout
Shifted from town to town
No job can hold me down, I`m just a knock-around guy
There`s a lot of space beneath that sky
Till I find my place there`s no doubt...
I`ll be a rovin` roustabout
Call me the carefree kind
I wander with the breeze
My mind and heart`s at ease
Doing what pleases me best
Gotta keep-a movin` east or west
Till I find my place there`s no doubt
I`ll be a rovin` roustabout
And even if a pretty girl, should catch my eye
I`ll give her a quick hello, and a fast goodbye
I`ll go the way I want
Driftin` just like the sand
Doin` what job I can
Changing my plans as I choose
Long as I keep happy I can`t lose
Till I find my place there`s no doubt
I`ll be a rovin` roustabout
I`ll be a rovin` roustabout...I`ll be a rovin` roustabout
I`ll be a rovin` roustabout..rovin`, rovin` roustabout....
