Roll and Tumble Blues Songtext
von Hambone Willie Newbern

And I rolled and I tumbled and I cried the whole night long
And I rolled and I tumbled and I cried the whole night long
And I rolled this mornin′, mama, and I didn't know right from wrong


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
And I told my woman just before 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 and I slowly walked away
Says, "That's all right, sweet mama, your trouble gonna come some day"
