I'M RAGGED BUT I'M RIGHT 
                  (George Jones)
                      1956
                  


C          
Well I've come here to tell you folks
     G7
I'm ragged but I'm right
                           C
I'm a tramp and a gambler I stay out late at night
    F                                   G7            D
A porterhouse steak steak three times a day for my board
                                     G7
That's more than any loafer in this old town can afford



            (Chorus).
      C                             G7
Well, a big electric fan to keep me cool while I sleep
                           C
A little baby boy playin' round Daddy's feet
       F                            C 
I'm a rambler and a gambler and I lead every life
        D                  G                 
Well I tell you folks I'm ragged but I'm right




( fiddle - guitar - piano )

                        G7
Well then I got married I knew I'd settle down
                                     C
And I built a little love nest right here in my hometown
F               C      G7                D
Now I've got a family one that I'm proud of
                                  G
I know that I'll be happy cause they're the ones I love




Well a  big electric fan.......(Chorus)

I tell you folks I'm ragged but I'm right

( harmonica )

I'm a rambler and a gambler I've lead a dirty life

Well I tell you folks I'm ragged but I'm right
