O sun won't you relent
For an old man and his wife
It'd k** me if she died
It'd k** me if she died
O road go easy on us
Lord our feet are getting tired
Maybe let's just sit a while
Maybe let's just sit a while
And roll, roll. roll
This stone inside my guts is getting heavier as I
Just roll, roll. roll
Along this road from friend to friend
We hauled our burdens end-to-end
But where we gonna leave em when we die
O fever won't you leave her
And break with the daylight
You're troubling her nights
You're troubling her nights
O screaming dreams that haunt her
As she sweats into the night
Take your terror out her eyes
Take your terror out her eyes
And roll, roll. roll
This sinking stone inside me's getting heavier as I
Just roll, roll. roll
Along this road I long depended
On my one and only friend
To help me with this weight, don't let her die
O shovel cut this earth
Even though it's hard and dry
My back is getting tired
My back is getting tired
O wind please dry my tears
Before I have the chance to cry
And roll, roll. roll
Just like the clouds I lay awake and watch up in the sky
Just roll, roll, roll
Tomorrow with the sun
I'm gonna push with all my might
But tonight I'll lay and bid my love goodbye
