Ramblin' Fan by Robert Wynne Music: "Ramblin Man" by the Allman Brothers © 2000 Lord I was born a rambling fanMy father was a filker from New Hampshire My mother published zines in New Jersy And I was born in the back row of a panel talk in Massachussetts back at Boskone 3 (chorus)Left a con in New Orleans this morning Next weekend is Nashville, Tennessee Every weekend there's another convention to attend And Worldcon's where I hope they'll bury me (chorus x2)
I wrote this in the car on the way back from dinner at Gafilk 2000. As a note to the literal minded, I don't have family in New Hampshire or New Jersey, and I was 31 years old the first time I even visited Massachussetts. So this song isn't remotely autobiographical. For the record. This song was published in the Gafilk 2001 songbook.
