Johnny Cash: Hey, glad to see you, buddy. Glad to see you. You got tuned up there? I got a singing welcome for you (tuning) Jack: There, I'm tuned up Cash (singing): Ramblin' Jack, Ramblin' Jack I sure am glad that you could ramble back Jack (singing): Well, my boots are dusty and my heads a mess I just flew in from the west Cash (singing): Well, I was talkin bout you and somebody said I believe Ramblin' Jack's dead Jack (singing): Well, that somebody must've been crazy as hell Cause you'd be the first guy I'd tell (laughing) Cash: Well strap your self into gear a G, bubba, and sing a song with me Both (singing): Take me home My heart is heavy and my feet are sorе Take me home I don't wanna roam no morе Cash: Sing it, Jack! Jack: Well I been from Boston to L.A Seen Boulder Dam and Frisco Bay New York and Washington I seen Montreal and Saskatchewan Been to Rhode Island And I worked in three all night service stations And I drove a truck Both (singing): Why don't you take me home My heart is heavy and my feet are sore Take me home I don't wanna roam no more Cash: Well I slept all night in a water trough Had the flu and the croup and the whoopin cough I had the mumps and the measles and the seven year itch And I cain't count the times I had a cold and a sour throat Not to mention every time I cut my finger on a sardine can Both (singing): Why don't you take me home My heart is heavy and my feet are sore Take me home I don't wanna roam no more Cash: Sing it, Jack Jack: Well I can see em all now Just a gatherin round Mama's supper table When the sun goes down Cash: And my good old pappy When the blessings said Fillin up his plate With black-eyed peas and all that stuff Jack: And a side of meat! Cash: And a great big helping Of my dear sweet momma's hot buttered cornbread Both (singing): Why don't you take me home My heart is heavy and my feet are sore Take me home I don't wanna roam no more I don't wanna roam no more I don't wanna roam no more
