Nat Stuckey - I'm Gonna Act Right lyrics

I'm gonna quit rambling gambling stayin' out late at night

I'm gonna go home where I belong and I'm gonna act right

Today I got a letter from my wife and her lawyer friend

It said they know everything I've been doing

And they know every place that I've been

They even had a bunch of pictures of me on a dance hall floor

Then it went on to say if I didn't act right they could dig up a little bit more

I'm gonna quit rambling...

[ steel ]

I turned the page right nervously and I slowly took a peek

The money that they had me for I'd have to work a ten day week

Well it ain't that I'm a coward I've always been pretty tough

But honey you know I still love you how come you want to play so rough

I'm gonna quit rambling...

I'm gonna quit rambling...
