Jerry Jeff Walker — Roll on Down the Road

Yeah I say rollin' wheels and blackjack deals Are all the same to me Yeah traded away everything I made And headed out to Santa Fe Laid my money down, the filly came around She's six lengths in the lead Yeah grabbed that money and 1 kissed my honey And we headed down to New Orleans Chorus: Won't you roll on down the road just let it roll Won't you roll on down the road, let it roll Hell I've never stopped to ask myself If the getting's worth the goal Guess I gotta gambler guess I gotta rambler Lord, I gotta gypsy soul Yeah well I gave thanks as they lowered the planks On the decks of the Delta Queen And I got in a game with a man named James And I figured I'd pick him clean When the bet went down and the deal came around Worst deal I'd ever seen I always thought my ace in the hole Must've been in Tennessee Chorus Well I always know'd my ace in the hole Must've been in music row They tell me, boys, gonna make a name That's the only place to go If you don't mind, I'm unkind Wanna do things my own way Yeah you gamble and you lose, sing a three chord blues Hell it's all the same Chorus
