The Rambler

The Rambler
! BY ripping reach and by sweeping
bend,
BY the brook in its bed of stone
I've rambled far with a well-tried
friend,
And I've rambled far alone.
I've swung my pack from my weary
On the heights where the free winds
blow;
| Through the wrestling gale, on the
mountain trail,
I've fought with Che driving snow.
I've laid my head on a balsam bed.
| Where never q sound could be heard
] But the lonesome call of the waterfall,
Or the song of dreaming bird.
| And I've found that wherever the path
may end,
Or whatever the day make known,
| It's better to ramble along with a
friend
Than to ramble all alone.
