I'm a rustling man : I rustle night and day
Just as soon as I get my money : I won't have to rustle this a‑way

A rustling man : have a hard time in this town
Because when you get broke and down baby : your friends all turn you down

I am a rustling man : I go from town to town
I believe I will get married : married Lord and settle down

I've traveled and traveled : mama I mean this whole world through
I haven't found nothing : boy for a poor rustling man to do
