"Let It Roll (Let It Rock)"
[G]In the heat of the day down in Mobile Alabama
Workin' on the railroad with a steel drivin' hammer
[C]Gotta get some money, buy some brand new shoes
[G]Try to find somebody to take away these blues
[D]She don't love me here I'm sing in the sun
[G]Pay day is coming when my work is all done
[G]Up and in the evening when the sun is sinking low
All day I've been waiting for the whistle to blow
[C]Sittin' in a tee-pee built right on the tracks
[G]Rollin' them bones til the foreman comes back
[D]Pick up your belongings boys and scatter about
We've got an [G]off scheduled train comin' two miles
out
[G]Let It Roll, Let It Roll,Let It [C] Roll Lord, Let
It [G] Roll
[D]Pick up your belongings boys and scatter about
We've got an [G]off scheduled train comin' two miles
out
[G]Everybody's scramblin' and a jumpin' around
Pickin' up the money and tearing the tee-pee down
[C]The foreman's about to panic and a go insane
[G]Tryin' to get the workers out of the way of the
train
[D]Engineer blowing the whistle loud and long
[G]Can't stop a train you've got to let it roll on
[G]Let It Roll, Let It Roll, Let It [C]Roll Lord, Let
It [G]Roll
[D]Engineer blowing the whistle loud and long
[G]Can't stop a train you've got to let it roll on
