I'm just a roustabout Shifted from town to town No job can hold me down, I'm just a knock-around guy There's a lot of space beneath that sky Till I find my place there's no doubt I'll be a rovin' roustabout Call me the carefree kind I wander with the breeze My mind and heart's at ease Doing what pleases me best Gotta keep-a movin' east or west Till I find my place there's no doubt I'll be a rovin' roustabout And even if a pretty girl, should catch my eye I'll give her a quick "hello", and a fast goodbye I'll go the way I wantDriftin' just like the sand Doin' what job I canChanging my plans as I chooseLong as I keep happy I can't lose Till I find my place there's no doubt I'll be a rovin' roustabout I'll be a rovin' roustabout I'll be a rovin' roustabout I'll be a rovin' roustabout rovin', rovin' roustabout
