Rollin' In My Sweet Baby's Arms
Rollin' In My Sweet Baby's Arms: Love, Freedom, and Bluegrass Vibes
Lyrics
I'm gonna lay around the shack
I plan to relax at home
Till the mail train comes back
Until the mail train returns
Then I'll roll in my sweet baby's arms
After that, I'll embrace my beloved
Well I ain't gonna work on the railroad
I won't engage in railroad work
I ain't gonna work on the farm
Nor will I work on the farm
Hey I'll lay around the shack till the mail train comes back
I'll idle at home until the mail train's return
And roll in my sweet baby's arms
And then be with my sweetheart
Well I'm rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
Currently enjoying the company of my beloved
Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
Continuing to revel in my sweetheart's presence
Lay around the shack till the mail train comes back
Remaining at home until the mail train comes back
Then I'll roll in my sweet baby's arms
Then returning to my sweet baby's arms
Well now where were you last Saturday night while I was a lyin' in jail
Questioning the whereabouts during my time in jail
Hey you're walkin' the streets with another man wouldn't even go my bail
Observing you with another man who wouldn't assist me
Well I'm rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
Still enjoying the company of my beloved
Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
Continuing to revel in my sweetheart's presence
Lay around the shack till the mail train comes back
Remaining at home until the mail train comes back
Then I'll roll in my sweet baby's arms
Then returning to my sweet baby's arms
Well now mama's a beauty operator
Describing mother as a beauty operator
Sister can wheel and can spin
Highlighting sister's skills in wheeling and spinning
Hey now daddy owns an interest in an old cotton gin
Father having an interest in an old cotton gin
Watch that all money roll in
Anticipating the influx of money from these endeavors
Well I'm rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
Still enjoying the company of my beloved
Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
Continuing to revel in my sweetheart's presence
Lay around the shack till the mail train comes back
Remaining at home until the mail train comes back
Then I'll roll in my sweet baby's arms
Then returning to my sweet baby's arms
Hey, we gonna lay around the shack
Planning to idle at home
Till the mail train comes back
Until the mail train returns
Then I'll roll in my sweet baby's arms
Then I'll embrace my beloved
