Another quote from the 1950s

I can settle down and be doin' just fine
Till I hear an old freight rollin' down the line,
Then I hurry straight home and pack
And if I didn't go, I believe I'd blow my stack
I love you baby, but you gotta understand
When the Lord made me he made a ramblin' man.

Hank Williams
