Get Out Your Big Roll Daddy Lyrics - Take Me To The River 1978-1982 - Levon Helm

Well I stepped to shore on the coast of Spain 

a lady of drink passed by 

She was just in her teens but oh what a queen 

with a smile that could satisfy 

She asked me if I had seen it before 

and she offered to show me the sights 

For three or four days we rocked it away 

and she held me for three or four nights. 

Get Out Your Big Roll Daddy 

Now get it all undone 

Depending on your spending 

How far you want to go for fun 

Get Out Your Big Roll Daddy 

Put it all on black 

Well it's only money honey but we can party up tonight 

I cruised in one day to old Monterey, 

I was looking for something free 

One thing on my mind was some good time wine 

and some women for company 

There were girls at the bar of the hotel, 

so I grabbed me a red-head of sorts 

Well I showered and I shaved and we sure misbehaved, 

I was drinking wine by the quart. 

[Chorus] 

[Solo] 

There's some good looking girls in Jamaica, 

and mademoiselles in France 

I lay ya ten to one that I can sure get it done 

and I will if I get that chance 

[Chorus] 

[Solo to Fade]
