Roll In My Sweet Baby`s Arms lyrics

(L. Flatt)

 

 [tempo increases with each verse]

 

 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

 

 FADES-

 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
