Gonna Roll in My Sweet Baby’s Arms - lyrics
Traditional American Folk Song - Train Song - Clawhammer Banjo played on a Mountain Banjo
Pretty rough performance. I`ll post it without notifying subscribers because it`s kind of embarrassing.

[Chorus:]
Gonna Roll in my sweet baby’s arms
Roll in my sweet baby’s arms
Lay around the shack
Till the mail train comes back
And roll in my sweet baby’s arms.

Ain’t gonna work on the railroad
Ain’t gonna work on the farm
Gonna lay around the shack
Till the mail train comes back
And roll in my sweet baby’s arms.

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’s never been a change in me

[Chorus]

Mama is a beauty operator
Sister can weave and spin
Daddy owns an interest in that old cotton mill
Just watching the money roll in

Where were you last Saturday night
While I was lying down in jail?
Walking down the street
With another man
and wouldn’t even go my bail

[Chorus]
