A
Some folks call me a ramblin' man
  D
I do a lot of thumbin' and kickin' cans
       A                                       E
And it wouldn't do an ounce of good to call me names
      A                         
Cause daddy's name wasn't Wille Woodrow
    D                              
And I wasn't born and raised in no ghetto 
       A                       E              A
Just a white boy lookin' for a place to do my thang.

     A
Well I'm out to find me a wealth woman
      D
And a line of work that don't take no diploma
  A                                   E
I ain't got much to lose but a lot to gain
     A
Yeah some might call me a good time fella
D   
I ain't black and, I ain't yella 
       A                       E              A
Just a white boy lookin' for a place to do my thang.

Chorus:
     D               Eb     
Yeah I don't want no handout livin' 
    A
And don't want a part of anything they're givin'
    B                                   E
I'm proud and white and I got a song to sing
     A
Well I've said a few things and I'll admit it
       D
If you want to get ahead you got to hump and get it
      A                       E              A
I'm A White Boy lookin' for a place to do my thang.

A Ab G B A

           A
Yeah I'm a small town boy been around a little
  D
I like guitars and I like a fiddle
    A                                         E
And that's the kind of soul it take to fan my flame
     A
Well I'm a blue eyed Billy kind of feared and ready
   D
So I'll have to work to be somebody
      A                       E              A
I'm A White Boy lookin' for a place to do my thang.

Chorus:

A                             E              A
I'm A White Boy lookin' for a place to do my thang.
