Rounder’s Blues Lyrics by Pert Near Sandstone

Up and Down The River

2007

I used to be a rounder, but then I changed my ways
I used to be a no good rambling gambler til you asked me to stay
I changed my ways when you asked me to stay
Now you tell me that you’re going away
They told me you were leaving, I’ll drink you off my mind
To inaugurate this grieving I bought a case of wine
With lonely days a looming I get myself another woman
But I’m afraid she’d be the killing kind
I’ll give you sugar for sugar, & you’ll get salt for salt
If you don’t love me honey, It’s your own damn fault
If you don’t love me honey, you don’t have to stall
‘Cause I can get more women than a train can haul
I used to think of you like a jack ass thinks of clover
If I were to loose you I’d-a searched this wide world over
But now that you’re, leaving I like to say so long
And I wish you were a long time gone
