Roll in My Sweet Baby’s Arms Songtext
von Lester Flatt & Earl Scruggs & The Foggy Mountain Boys

Roll in my sweet baby′s arms
Roll in my sweet baby's arms
Lay around the shack till the mail train comes back
And roll in my sweet baby′s arms

I ain't gonna work on the railroad
I ain't gonna work on the farm
Lay around the shack till the mail train comes back
And roll in my sweet baby′s arms
Roll in my sweet baby′s arms
Roll in my sweet baby's arms
Lay around the shack till the mail train comes back
And roll in my sweet baby′s arms


Now where was you last Friday night
While I was lyin' in jail
Walkin′ the streets with another man
You wouldn't even go my bail
Roll in my sweet baby′s arms
Roll in my sweet baby's arms
Lay around the shack till the mail train comes back
And roll in my sweet baby's arms

I know your parents don′t like me
They drove me away from your door
If I had my life to live over
I′d never go there anymore
Roll in my sweet baby's arms
Roll in my sweet baby′s arms
Lay around the shack till the mail train comes back
And roll in my sweet baby's arms

Roll in my sweet baby′s arms
Roll in my sweet baby's arms
Lay around the shack till the mail train comes back
And roll in my sweet baby′s arms
