Ramblin' Gamblin' Man is the first studio album by American rock band The Bob Seger System, released in 1969 (see 1969 in music).

Cause I was born lonely down by the riverside

Learned to spin fortune wheels, and throw dice

And I was just thirteen when I had to leave home

Knew I couldn't stick around, I had to roam

Ain't good looking, but you know I ain't shy

Ain't afraid to look it girl, hear me out

So if you need some lovin, and you need it right away

Take a little time out, and maybe I'll stay

[Chorus:]

But I got to ramble (ramblin' man)

Oh I got to gamble (gamblin' man)

Got to got to ramble (ramblin' man)

I was born a ramblin' gamblin' man

I'm out of money, cause you know I need some

Ain't around to lovin, and I must run

Gotta keep moving, never gonna slow down

You can have your funky world, see you 'round
