Lester Flatt & Earl Scruggs & The Foggy Mountain Boys - Roll In My Sweet Baby's Arms lyrics

[Banjo intro] I ain't gonna work on the railroad I ain't gonna work on the farm Lay around the shack till the mail train comes back And 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 till the mail train comes back And roll in my sweet baby's arms [Fiddle bridge] Now where was you last Friday night While I was lyin' in jail? Walkin' the streets with another man You wouldn't even go my bail Roll in my sweet baby's arms Roll in my sweet baby's arms Lay around the shack till the mail train comes back And roll in my sweet baby's arms [Dobro and banjo bridge] 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 marry no more [Banjo bridge] Roll in my sweet baby's arms Roll in my sweet baby's arms Lay around the shack till the mail train comes back And roll in my sweet baby's arms
