Sonny James cut it first in July 1968 and held it for five years before releasing it on the album ''The Gentleman from the South'' in 1973 There were two 1970s country music versions of the song: a version by Johnny Lee reached number 37 on the ''Billboard'' country chart in 1977; the following year, singer Hank Snow's version charted at number 93. Petula Clark released a French version in 1962, titled "Les Beaux Jours".

Neither of these songs should be confused with "Rambling Rose," a light pop song from the 1940s, with music by Joseph Burke and lyrics by Joseph Allan McCarthy Jr. It has been recorded by a number of singers, most notably Perry Como. ==See also== *List of number-one adult contemporary singles of 1962 (U.S.) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ramblin' Rose」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
