I'm Ragged but I'm Right - Song written by Johnny Cash
Well I've come here to tell you folks I'm ragged but I'm right
I'm a tramp and a gambler I stay out late at night
But a porterhouse steak steak three times a day for my board
That's more than any loafer in this old town can afford
Well I got big electric fan to keep me cool while I sleep
A little baby boy playin' rounds at my feet
I'm a rambler and a gambler and I've lead a dirty life
Well I tell you folks I'm ragged but I'm right
Well then I got married I knew I'd settle down
And I built a little love nest right here in my hometown
Now I've got a family one that I'm proud of
I know that I'll be happy cause they're the ones I love
Well I got big electric fan to keep me cool while I sleep
A little baby boy playin' rounds daddy's feet
I'm a rambler and a gambler and I've lead a dirty life
Well I tell you folks I'm ragged but I'm right
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

My favorite job ($90.00 per hour)singing with Johnny Cash on this song.I always wanted to sing backup harmony because as a child my sister always made me sing the melody and she sang harmony (she went on to sing "Day By Day "in Godspell in New York and "Freddy My Love"on Broadway in Grease then palyed Julia Newman on "Yhe Young and The Restless"9 years ago

Riley Puckett sang it back in the 20s before George was born. George's version is my favorite, though ;p10 years ago

the song originally is an old traditional blues/jazz/ragtime song george jones just re-wrote a few verses and changed some of the music a tiny bit to make it more of a country song. but he didn't write the whole thing.12 years ago
