Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms rollin' in my sweet baby's arms Lay around the shack till the mail train comes back Well I'm rollin' in my sweet baby's arms I ain't gonna work on the railroad I ain't gonna work on the farm I'll lay around the shack till the mail train comes back Well I'm rollin' in my sweet baby's arms Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms... [ Fiddle ] Well where was you last Saturday night while I was lyin' in jail Walkin' the streets with another girl you wouldn't even go my bail Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms... [ Mandolin ] Mama's a beauty operator sister can wheel and can spin Daddy owns an interest in an old cotton gin just watch that all cotton roll in Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms...
