Lyric Roll In My Sweet Baby s Arms
[tempo increases with each verse]
Roll in my sweet baby s arms
Roll in my sweet baby s arms
I ll lay around this shack
Til the mail tain comes back
An I ll roll in my sweet baby s arms
I ain t gonna work on the railroad
(You ain t gonna work at all if you can help it !)
No, I ain t gonna work on the farm
I ll lay around this shack
Til the mail train comes back
An I ll roll in my sweet baby s arms
Roll in my sweet baby s arms
Roll in my sweet baby s arms
I ll lay around this shack
Til the mail train comes back
An I ll roll in my sweet baby s arms
TW sings:
My mama was a beauty operator
Sister could sew and could mend
My daddy owned an interest in that old sorghum mill
Just-a watchin all that money roll in
Roll in my sweet baby s arms (roll in my sweet baby s arms)
Roll in my sweet baby s arms (roll in my sweet baby s arms)
I ll lay around this shack
Til the mail train comes back
An I ll roll in my sweet baby s arms
Roll in my sweet baby s arms (roll in my sweet baby s arms)
Roll in my sweet baby s arms (roll in my sweet baby s arms)
I ll lay around this shack
Til the mail train comes back
An I ll roll in my sweet baby s arms
Roll in my sweet baby s arms (roll in my sweet baby s arms)
Rollin in my sweet baby s arms (roll in my sweet baby s arms)
I ll lay around this shack
Til the mail train comes back
An I ll roll in my sweet baby s arms
Roll in my sweet baby s arms (roll in my sweet baby s arms)
Roll in my sweet baby s arms (roll in my sweet baby s arms)
I ll lay around this shack
Til the mail train comes back
An I ll roll in my sweet baby s arms
