I roll in my sweet baby's arms |
|
I roll in my sweet baby's arms |
|
I lay around the shack till the mail train comes back |
|
And I roll in my sweet baby's ... |
|
Well, I ain't gonna work on no railroad, baby |
|
Ain't gonna work on no farm |
|
I'm gonna lay around the shack till the mail train comes back |
|
And I'm rollin' in my sweet baby's arms. |
|
I roll in my sweet baby's arms |
|
Roll in my sweet baby's arms |
|
I come lay around the shack till the mail train comes back |
|
And I'm rollin' in my sweet baby's arms. |
|
My mama was a beauty operator |
|
Sister could sew and could spin |
|
My daddy owned an interest in that new cotton ... |
|
Just-a watchin' all that money rollin' in. |
|
I roll in my sweet baby's arms |
|
Roll in my sweet baby's arms |
|
I come lay around the shack till the mail train comes back |
|
And I'm rollin' in my sweet baby's arms. |
|
Oh, I know that your parents they don't like me |
|
They roll me away from your door |
|
Help me find my life to live over |
|
And I never go there no more. |
|
I roll in my sweet baby's arms |
|
Roll in my sweet baby's arms |
|
I come lay around the shack till the mail train comes back |
|
And I'm rollin' in my sweet baby's arms. |
|
Well now, where were you last Saturday night, baby ? |
|
While I was lyin' around down in jail ? |
|
................. walking with another man |
|
He wouldn't even go my bail, so now ... |
|
I roll in my sweet baby's arms |
|
Roll in my sweet baby's arms |
|
I come lay around the shack till the mail train comes back |
|
And I'm rollin' in my sweet baby's arms. |
|
I roll in my sweet baby's arms |
|
Roll in my sweet baby's arms |
|
I come lay around the shack till the mail train comes back |
|
And I'm rollin' in my sweet baby, rollin' in my sweet baby , rollin' in my sweet baby |
|
s arms. |
