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

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
