Well, I rolled and I tumbled, cried the whole night long
Well, I rolled and I tumbled, cried the whole night long
Well, I woke up this mornin', didn't know right from wrong
Well, I told my baby, before I left that town
Well, I told my baby, before I left that town
Well, don't you let nobody, tear my barrelhouse down
Well, ahh, mmm-hmmm, owww, oww ooo, aww, oww, oh
Aaa, mmm-hmmm, oww, oh oh oh owww, oww ooo, aww, oww, oh
Well, if the river was whiskey, and I was a divin' duck
Well, if the river was whiskey, and I was a divin' duck
Well, I would dive to the bottom, never would I come up
Well, I could a had a religion, this bad old thing instead
Well, I could a had a religion, this bad old thing instead
Well, all whiskey and women, would not let me pray
Lyrics as recorded by Cream
Album: Fresh Cream (1966)
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
yeh, yeh, yeh, yeh, yeh, yeh, yeh, yeh
We were rollin' and tumblin'
Right the whole night long
We were rollin' and tumblin'
Right the whole night long
When I woke up this mornin' babe
All I had was gone
Well I rolled my baby
Got to jump and shout
Said I rolled my baby
Got to jump and shout
When that train rolls up boys
Goin' walkin' on home
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
yeh, yeh, yeh, yeh, yeh, yeh, yeh, yeh
Hey, hey, hey, yeh, hey, hey, yeh, yey
Well engine driver blows that whistle
Fireman rings that bell
Say engine driver blows that whistle
Fireman rings that bell
Well I didn't have time boys
To bid my baby farewell
