Born and raised as a rich man's son   You were always the restless one   Living high only made you low   So you packed up and hit the road      Hey, Mr. Ragamuffin Man   Life was so grand, you used to stand   Holdin' your head up high   Hey, Mr. Ragamuffin Man   Just look at you now, I wonder how   You can be satisfied      Stowed a ride on a westbound train   Called yourself by another name   Spent your nights in a mission home   Cast away the life that you'd known      Hey, Mr. Ragamuffin Man   Life was so grand, you used to stand   Holdin' your head up high   Hey, Mr. Ragamuffin Man   Just look at you now, I wonder how   You can be satisfied      As you rise in the mornin' rain   Just take a look down that road again   Does the thought ever grab your mind   For the life that you've left behind?      Hey, Mr. Ragamuffin Man   Life was so grand, you used to stand   Holdin' your head up high   Hey, Mr. Ragamuffin Man   Just look at you now, I wonder how   You can be satisfied, oh no, no, no      Hey, it's the Ragamuffin Man   Ahh, la la la la la la la   Hey, it's the Ragamuffin Man   La la la la la la la   Hey, it's the Ragamuffin Man
