Chorus:
Roll in my sweet baby's arms Roll in my sweet baby's arms Lay around my shack till the mail train comes back Then I'll roll in my sweet baby's arms
I ain't gonna work on the railroad I ain't gonna work on the farm Lay 'round my shack till the mail train comes back And I'll roll in my sweet baby's arms
Now where was you last Friday night While I was lying in jail Walkin' the street with another man Wouldn't even go my bail
I know your parents don't like me They drove me away from your door If I had my life to live over I'd never go there any more
Mama's a ginger cake baker Sister can weave and can spin Daddy's got an interest in that old cotton mill Just to watch that ol' money roll in
Sometimes there's a change in the ocean Sometimes there's a change in the sea Sometimes there's a change in my own true love But there'll never be a change in me
