Whiskey Rock‐a‐Roller Songtext
von Lynyrd Skynyrd

I′m headed down a highway
Got my suitcase by my side
Blue skies hangin' over my head
I got five hundred miles to ride
I′m goin' down to Memphis town
Play a late night show
I hope people are ready there
'Cause the boys are all ready to go

Well, I′m a whiskey rock-a-roller
That′s what I am
Women, whiskey, miles of travelin
It's all I understand


Yes, I was born a travelin′ man
And my feet still burn the ground
I don't care for fancy music
If your shoes can′t shuffle around
I got a hundred women or more
And there's no place I call home
The only time I′m satisfied
Is when I'm on the road, Lord

Well, I'm a whiskey rock-a-roller
That′s what I am
Women, whiskey, miles of travelin′
It's all I understand

Sometimes I wonder
Well where will we go
Lord, don′t you take my whiskey
And rock'n′roll

Take me down to Memphis town
Bus driver, get me there
I got me a queen, an'
She got long brown curly hair
She likes to drink Old Granddad
And her shoes do shuffle around
An′ every time I see that gal
Lord, she wants to take me down


Well, I'm a whiskey rock-a-roller
That's what I am
Women, whiskey, miles of travelin′
It′s all I understand

Sometimes I wonder
Well where will we go
Lord, don't you take my whiskey
And rock′n'roll
