Rollin' and tumblin'
Cried the whole night long
Well I'm rollin' and tumblin'
Cried the whole night long
Well I rolled this mornin', mama,
Didn't know right from wrong
And I told my woman, Lord,
'fore I left the town
And I told my woman,
'fore I left the town
Don't you let nobody
Tear the barrelhouse down
And I fold my arms, Lord,
And I walked away
Fold my arms, Lord,
And I walked away
Says, ""that's all right, sweet mama,
Your trouble gonna come some day
Did you ever wake up and find
Your dough-roller gone?
Did you ever wake up and find
Your dough-roller gone?
And you wring your hands and you
Cry the whole day long
And I told my woman, Lord,
'fore I left the town
Told my woman,
'fore I left the town
""Don't you let nobody
Tear the barrelhouse down""
And I fold my arms, Lord,
And I walked away
And I fold my arms, Lord,
And I walked away
Says, ""that's all right, sweet mama,
Your trouble gonna come some day"
