Written by C.R.Foster & Byron Gay. Performed by Billy Murray on Victor (17755-A). Played for you on a 1927 Victor Portable Victrola with Orthophonic sound.

Here's the youtube link

Here's a link if you want to upload this song as a ring tone for your phone. What a day and age we live in!

Here's the lyrics:

And the little old Ford, it rambled right
along,
And the little old Ford, it rambled right
along,
The gas burned out in the big machine.
But the darn little Ford don't need
gasoline.
the big limosine had to back down hill.
The blamed little Ford is going up still.
When she blows out a tire,
Just wrap it up with wire
And the little Ford will ramble right along.
REFRAIN TWO
And the little old Ford, it rambled right
along,
And the little old Ford, it rambled right
along,
Now cut that out, you naughty tease,
Tis a left hand driver and a right hand
squeeze.
Patch it up with a piece of string.
Spearmint gum or any old thing.
When the power gets sick, just hit it with a
brick
And the little Ford will ramble right along.
And the little Ford will ramble right along.

Has anybody found a recorded version of It's a Rambling Flivver? A follow-up by Byron Gay with a very similar cover on the sheet music. I was the underbidder on the sheet music just recently on Tbay, and some guy sells copies of the cover on Tbay, but I'd like the sheet music,not just the cover.

Must have been a popular piece. I see them a lot at swap meets and antique stores.

I have an Edison Diamond disk of the song, kinda ruff sounding, but cool non the less.
