Roll In My Sweet Baby's Arms Lyrics - Flatt And Scruggs

I ain't gonna work on the railroad 

I ain't gonna work on the farm 

Lay down the shack 'til the mail train comes back 

And I'll 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 'til the mail train comes back 

And I'll roll in my sweet baby's arms 

Now where were was you last Friday night? 

While I was lying in jail 

Walking the streets with another man 

Wouldn't even go for my bail 

Roll in my sweet baby's arms 

Roll in my sweet baby's arms 

Lay around the shack 'til the mail train comes back 

And I'll roll in my sweet baby's arms 

I know your parents don't like me 

They drove me away from your door 

Had my life to live over 

I'd never go there any more 

Roll in my sweet baby's arms 

Roll in my sweet baby's arms 

Lay around the shack 'til the mail train comes back 

And I'll 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 'til the mail train comes back 

And I'll roll in my sweet baby's arms
