Let It Roll (Let It Rock)

In the heat of the day down in mobile alabama

Workin' on the railroad with a steel drivin' hammer

Gotta get some money, buy some brand new shoes

Try to find somebody to take away these blues

She don't love me here I'm sing in the sun

Pay day is coming when my work is all done

Up and in the evening when the sun is sinking low

All day I've been waiting for the whistle to blow

Sittin' in a tee-pee built right on the tracks

Rollin' them bones til the foreman comes back

Pick up your belongings boys and scatter about

We've got an off scheduled train comin' two miles out

Let it roll, let it roll, let it roll lord, let it roll

Pick up your belongings boys and scatter about

We've got an off scheduled train comin' two miles out

Everybody's scramblin' and a jumpin' around

Pickin' up the money and tearing the tee-pee down

The foreman's about to panic and a go insane

Tryin' to get the workers out of the way of the train

Engineer blowing the whistle loud and long

Can't stop a train you've got to let it roll on

Let it roll, let it roll, let it roll lord, let it roll

Engineer blowing the whistle loud and long

Can't stop a train you've got to let it roll on
