Roll on Babe,
Don't you roll so slow,
when the wheel don't turn,
you don't roll no more.
I dreamt last night Ole Lola was dead
saw the apron strings all around her head
Roll on Babe, don't you roll so slow,
when the wheel don't turn,
you don't roll no more.
well I jumped a train,
when I want to go,
and for where she's bound,
I don't want to know
Roll on Babe,
Don't you roll so slow,
when the wheel don't turn,
you won't roll no more.
Well I've been drinking gin
I drank some whiskey too,
well I got hooked what you gonna do
Roll on Babe,
Don't you roll so slow,
when the wheel don't turn,
you don't roll no more.
Don't you roll so slow,
when the wheel don't turn,
you don't roll no more.
