Roll in My Sweet Baby's Arms

Rollin' my sweet baby's arms
Rollin' my sweet baby's arms
I'm gonna lay around the shack

Till the mail train comes back
And I'm rollin' in my sweet baby's arms

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'll roll in my sweet baby's arms
Roll in my sweet baby's arms
I'm gonna 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 had an interest in a new cotton gin
Just-a watchin' all that money rollin' in

Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
I'm gonna 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
Drove me away from your door
I will find my life to live over
And I'll never go back no more

Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
I'm gonna 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 layin' right down there in jail?
I heard you was a-walking with another man
He would not even go my bail, so now

I am rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
And I'm rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
I'm gonna lay around the shack
Till the mail train comes back
And I'm rollin' in my sweet baby's arms

Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
Rollin' my sweet baby's arms
I'm gonna 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
