Well you gotta roll on buddy, roll on easy
How can I roll ,when the wheel won't go
I've been rollin´ yes and I've been wheeling
Just a little too long, just a little too long
Well early in the morning, I find myself praying
That the sun don't rise, that the sun don't rise
When that sun's gotta movin´ captain done call me
To country road, to country road
Grab a my hammer, hammer is a burnin´
From the blazing sun, from the blazing sun
Forty pound a hammer just a little to heavy
For my size buddy for my size
Oh roll on buddy, roll on easy
How can I roll, when the wheel won't go
Sometimes I get a sayin´, sometimes I get a prayin´
That I never been born, that I never been born
When a man's on a chain gang all his days
Something done gone wrong, something sure is wrong
All this sweat all down my face
Never cool my tongue, never cool my tongue
Well I won't lay down somewhere that's shading
Let the cop pass by let the cop pass by
Now ain't that a shame, shame, shame ´bout the captain
That boy don't know that he bound to die
Roll on buddy roll on easy
How can I roll when the wheel won't go
