Roll On, Buddy Songtext

Well, you gotta roll on, buddy
Roll on easy
How can I roll it when the wheel won′t go?

I've been rollin′, yes, and I've been wheeling
Just a little too long, just a little too long
Well, early in the morning, I find myself praying
That the sun don't rise
That the sun don′t rise (sun don′t rise)

When the sun's starts to movin′ (devil done call me)
Then captain done call me (devil done call me)
To County road (break down the road)
To County road (county road)

Well, I grab a-my hammer (grab my hammer)
That hammer is burnin' (burnin′, burnin')
From the blazin′ sun, from the blazing sun (blazin' sun)

Well, a 40 pound a-hammer (40 pound hammer)
Is just a little too heavy
For my size (for my size)
Buddy, for my size (for my size)


Oh, roll on, buddy (roll on, buddy)
Well, roll on easy (roll on easy now)
How can I roll when the wheel won't go? (Wheel won′t go)

Sometimes I get a saying
Sometimes I get a praying
That I never been born
That I never been born (never been born)

When a man′s on a chain (man on chain, chain)
All his days (all his days)
Something done gone wrong (something wrong)
Something sure is wrong (sure's wrong)

And all this sweat (all this sweat)
Pour down my face (down my face)
Never cool my tongue (cool my tongue)
Oh, cool my tongue (cool my tongue)

Well, I won′t lay down (lay me down)
Somewhere that's shady (in the shade)
Let the cop pass by (let the cop)
Let the cop pass by (pass me by)


Now ain′t that a shame, shame, shame, shame, shame
'Bout the captain? (Boring being)
That boy don′t know (he don't know)
That he bound to die (bound to die)

Roll on, buddy (roll on, big buddy)
Roll on easy (roll on easy now)
How can I roll (can I roll)
When the wheel won't go? (Wheel won′t go)

Roll on, buck buddy (roll on, big buddy)
Roll on, roll on (roll on easy now)
How can I roll when the wheel won′t go? (Wheel won't go)

When the wheel won′t go (wheel won't go)
When the wheel won′t go (wheel won't go)
When the wheel won′t go (wheel won't go)
When the wheel won't go
