[Verse 1]
Reeling 'cross the mossy swamp
Texarkana, Louisiana
Listening to the engine thump
My nerves are shattered, what does it matter
If the rain pitter patters down the tree stump?
[Verse 2]
Looks like the rivers are low
Johnny and Lindy, ain't they windy?
Listening to the radio
Rivers steamin', what are you dreamin'?
Leaning half way out the window
[Chorus]
Roll on, honey, we're rollin' on
Blurred barbed wire out the window
Turn around and you'll be gone
[Verse 3]
Headed up east about broke
In my tuxedo, holy Toledo
Choking on the factory smoke
There go the Great Lakes, I got a headache
I ain't trying to make no joke
[Chorus]
Roll on, honey, we're rollin' on
Blurred barbed wire out the window
Turn around and you'll be gone
[Verse 4]
Now we gotta pay our toll
New York City, ain't she pretty
Blazing like a thunderbolt
My nerves are shattered, what does it matter
If the rain pitter patters down a manhole?
[Outro]
Roll on, honey, we're rollin' on
Roll, roll, roll, we're rollin' on
Hold on honey, we're rollin' on
Roll, roll, roll, roll, roll
Roll on, honey, we're rollin' on
