[Verse 1]
My mother told my father
Well, well, before I was born
You got a boy child coming
Sure is gonna be
Well, he's gonna be
Well, the boy will be a rolling stone
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
I went to my baby's house
Well, I fell down right on the steps
She said come in, come in, Danny
Oh well, my other man
Well, well, well, my other man
Don't you know my husband he just now left
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
I've been crazy
People, I've even been a fool, too
I've been crazy almost all of my life
Well, I, I've been in love, people
Well, with some other man's
I'm with some other man's
I've been in love with some other man's wife, don't you know
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 4]
My baby, she's so long and tall
So she moves just like a willow tree
Well, she's the one I'm lovin', people
Well, she is the very one
I do hate to lose
I hate to lose
Oh, I hate to lose, baby
Oh, lose
Oh baby, oh baby, oh baby
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 5]
There are two, two trains running
Well, they're never going my way
Well, one runs at midnight
Yes, yes, the other one
Oh well, the other one
Oh well, the other one runs before the break of day
[Outro]
All day, I'll carry it
All day, I'll carry it
All day, all day, all day, all day
All day
