I ain't gonna work on the railroad I ain't gonna work on the farm
I'll lay around the shack till the mail train comes back
I'm rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
-CHORUS-
Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
Lay around the shack till the mail train comes back
I'm rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
[ fiddle ]
Now where was you last Friday night while I was lyin' in jail
Walkin' the streets with another man you wouldn't even go my bail
-Repeat CHORUS-
[ fiddle ]
Well now mama's a beauty operator sister can wheel and can spin
Hey now daddy owns an interest in an old cotton gin watch that all money roll in
-Repeat CHORUS-
[ banjo ]
-Repeat CHORUS-
I'll lay around the shack till the mail train comes back
I'm rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
-CHORUS-
Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
Lay around the shack till the mail train comes back
I'm rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
[ fiddle ]
Now where was you last Friday night while I was lyin' in jail
Walkin' the streets with another man you wouldn't even go my bail
-Repeat CHORUS-
[ fiddle ]
Well now mama's a beauty operator sister can wheel and can spin
Hey now daddy owns an interest in an old cotton gin watch that all money roll in
-Repeat CHORUS-
[ banjo ]
-Repeat CHORUS-
