I had a friend named Ramblin' Bob
Who used to steal, gamble and rob

He thought he was the smartest guy in town
But I found out last Monday,
that Bob got locked up Sunday

They've got him in the jailhouse way downtown

Bob liked to play his poker
Pee-knuckle, with Stan Yoker

But shootin' dice was his favourite game
Well, he got thro'd in jail, with
nobody to go his bail

The judge done said that he refused a fine
