(words & music by giant - baum - kaye)
I'm just a roustabout
Shifted from town to town
No job can hold me down, i'm just a knock-around guy
There's a lot of space beneath that sky
Till i find my place there's no doubt...
I'll be a rovin' roustabout

Call me the carefree kind
I wander with the breeze
My mind and heart's at ease
Doing what pleases me best
Gotta keep-a movin' east or west
Till i find my place there's no doubt
I'll be a rovin' roustabout

And even if a pretty girl, should catch my eye
I'll give her a quick "hello", and a fast goodbye

I'll go the way i want
Driftin' just like the sand
Doin' what job i can
Changing my plans as i choose
Long as i keep happy i can't lose
Till i find my place there's no doubt
I'll be a rovin' roustabout

I'll be a rovin' roustabout...i'll be a rovin' roustabout

I'll be a rovin' roustabout..rovin', rovin' roustabout....
