[Verse]
Well, it′s a lot in the morning
When I rise, well I
Well, it′s a lot in the morning
When I rise, when I rise
Well, it′s a lot in the morning
When I rise, oh Lawdy Mama
I get a funny, icky feeling, in my right side, oh, well
In my right side, Lawdy Mama
In my right side, oh, well I
I get a funny, icky feeling, in my right side, oh, well
[Verse]
Buildin' rocks and gravel to make
Make a solid road, oh, Lawdy Mama
Take the rocks and gravel to make
Make a solid road, oh, well I
Take the rocks and gravel to make
Make a solid road, oh, well, Lawdy Mama
Take a good-lookin' woman, well, out
To make a good-lookin′ home
[Chorus]
Well, law, lawdy rolla
Well, law, lawdy rolla
Well, law, lawdy rolla
Gonna ride it like a will
[Verse]
Well, I ain't been to Georgia, honey
But I′ve been told, oh Lawdy Mama
Well, I've been built in Georgia, honey
But I′ve been told, well I
I ain't been to Georgia, honey
But I've been told, oh, Lawdy mama
That your Georgia women got sweet Jericho
[Hook]
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
[Bridge]
Brother Wolbecker begged this morning
At a school out, Darla to Mama
Brother Wolbecker begged this morning
At a school out, Darla, oh well
Brother Wolbecker begged this morning
At a school out, Darla to Mama
Well, he begged so hard, oh, well
'Till his ankle got so sore
[Chorus]
Well, law, lawdy rolla
Well, law, lawdy rolla
Well, law, lawdy rolla
Gonna ride it like a will
Well, law, lawdy rolla
Well, law, lawdy rolla
Well, law, lawdy rolla
Gonna ride it like a will
Gonna ride it like a will
