Lyrics

[Intro]
One, two, three, aye
[Verse 1]
If you walked a mile
In my crocodile boots
I bet you'd take off runnin' for the hills
Ever since I was a youngin'
I been tuggin' at my roots
Always loved the way that leavin' feels
[Chorus]
I'm a ramblin' desperado
Never lookin' back's my middle name
All the time I had I had to borrow
Here today
Gone tomorrow
Here today
Gone tomorrow
Mmm-mmm
[Verse 2]
You can watch my smoke from back behind me
Chances are that I won't tap the brakes
All around the world is where you'll find me
Always on the run is my favorite place
[Chorus]
I'm a ramblin' desperado
Never lookin' back's my middle name
All the time I had I had to borrow
Here today
Gone tomorrow
Here today
Gone tomorrow
[Bridge]
You can't say that I ain't never warned ya
Going back to the same place that I've been
It don't mean that I ain't got love for ya
And it don't mean that I won't be back again
[Chorus]
I'm a ramblin' desperado
Never lookin' back's my middle name
All the time I had I had to borrow
Here today
Gone tomorrow
Here today
Gone tomorrow
