Let It Rock
|
|
In The Heat Of The Day Down In Mobile Alabama
|
Working on the railroad with the steel driving hammer
|
Gotta make some money to buy some brand new shoes
|
Tryin' to find somebody to take away these blues
|
"She don't love me" hear them singing in the sun
|
Payday's coming and my work is all done
|
|
Later in the evening when the sun is sinking low
|
All day I been waiting for the whistle to blow
|
Sitting in a teepee built right on the tracks
|
Rolling them bones until the foreman comes back
|
Pick up you belongings boys and scatter about
|
We've got an off-schedule train comin¡¯ two miles about
|
|
Everybody's scrambling, running around
|
Picking up their money, tearing the teepee down
|
Foreman wants to panic, ¡®bout to go insane
|
Trying to get the workers out the way of the train
|
Engineer blows the whistle loud and long
|
Can't stop the train, gotta let it roll on
|
