Lyrics Roll In My Sweet Baby’s Arms - Lester Flatt, Earl Scruggs

Roll In My Sweet Baby’s Arms

Ain’t gonna work on the railroad
Ain’t gonna work on the farm
Gonna lay 'round the track till the mail train comes back
Then I’ll roll in my sweet baby’s arms
Cho: Roll in my swwet baby’s arms
Roll in my sweet baby’s arms
Lay round this shack till the mail train gets back
Roll in my sweet baby’s arms
Now where were you last Friday night
While I was layin' in the jail?
Were you walkin' the streets with another man?
You wouldn’t even go my bail
I know your parents don’t like me
They turn me away from your door
If I had my life to live over
Oh well, I’d never go back anymore
