lyrics

I'm gonna lay around the shack till the mail train comes back
Then I'll roll in my sweet baby's arms

Well I ain't gonna work on the railroad
I ain't gonna work on the farm
Hey I'll lay around the shack till the mail train comes back
And roll in my sweet baby's arms

Well I'll roll in my sweet baby's arms
Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
I'll lay around the shack till the mail train comes back
Then I'll roll in my sweet baby's arms

Now where were you last Saturday night
While I was lyin' in jail
Hey walkin' the streets with another man
Wouldn't even go my bail

Well I'll roll in my sweet baby's arms
Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
Lay around the shack till the mail train comes back
Then I'll roll in my sweet baby's arms

(Do it, Luke)

Hey now mama's a baby operator
Brother can drink and can spin
Hey now daddy owns an interest in the old cattle pen
Watch that all money roll in

Well I'll roll in my sweet baby's arms
Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
Lay around the shack till the mail train comes back
Then I'll roll in my sweet baby's arms
Hey I'll lay around the shack till the mail train comes back
Then I'll roll in my sweet baby's arms
