G I ain't gonna work on the railroadD Ain't gonna work on the farmG Lay around the shackC Till the mail train comes backD G And then I'll roll in my sweet baby's arms [Chorus]G Roll in my sweet baby's armsD Roll in my sweet baby's armsG Lay around the shackC Till the mail train comes backD G And then I'll roll in my sweet baby's arms [Verse]G Never get a letter from my own true loveD She has quit writing to meG C She must think I don't love her like I used toD G Well now ain't that a foolish idea [Chorus]G Roll in my sweet baby's armsD Roll in my sweet baby's armsG Lay around the shackC Till the mail train comes backD G And then I'll roll in my sweet baby's arms [Verse]G Mommy is a ginny cake bakerD Sister can weave and spinG C Daddy's got an interest in that old cotton millD G Just a-watch that old money roll in [Chorus]G Roll in my sweet baby's armsD Roll in my sweet baby's armsG Lay round the shackC Till the mail train comes backD G And roll in my sweet baby's arms [Verse]G Where were you last Friday nightD While I was lyin' in jailG C Walking the streets with another manD G And you wouldn't even go my bail [Chorus]G Roll in my sweet baby's armsD Roll in my sweet baby's armsG Lay round the shackC Till the mail train comes backD G And roll in my sweet baby's arms
Roll In My Sweet Babys Arms
