Rollin' Tennessee Songtext
Come on baby won't you dance with me?
In the sleepy dusty morning, awake in tennessee
From different worlds they watch the same sun go down
And if I swore them to the devil would he keep them
around?
Oh baby I've no faith in love or life
I'm just a-rollin' down the tracks with a head full of
rhymes
Come on baby won't you meet me here?
This town it ain't quite whiskey, but it's better than
beer
From different places in the same black road
Where some kids are bad
And others do what they're told
Cause baby I've no faith in time or space
I'm just a-rollin' down the tracks with no stopping
place
Come on honey don't you act so tough
Don't you call out my name and I won't call your bluff
At different stations where the same trains pass
Sometimes we cannot be seen just like ghosts in a
glass
An' baby oh there ain't no lost and found
I'm just a-rollin down the tracks in some shadow town
Caught in the daylight, like a rose in the grass
Looking up at the tall trees
Looking up at the tall trees
My father speaks slowly as a train rolls past
He says you can never be free
You can never be free
But try, oh you must try to just let it go
Try, oh you must try to just let it go
In the sleepy dusty morning, awake in tennessee
From different worlds they watch the same sun go down
And if I swore them to the devil would he keep them
around?
Oh baby I've no faith in love or life
I'm just a-rollin' down the tracks with a head full of
rhymes
Come on baby won't you meet me here?
This town it ain't quite whiskey, but it's better than
beer
From different places in the same black road
Where some kids are bad
And others do what they're told
Cause baby I've no faith in time or space
I'm just a-rollin' down the tracks with no stopping
place
Come on honey don't you act so tough
Don't you call out my name and I won't call your bluff
At different stations where the same trains pass
Sometimes we cannot be seen just like ghosts in a
glass
An' baby oh there ain't no lost and found
I'm just a-rollin down the tracks in some shadow town
Caught in the daylight, like a rose in the grass
Looking up at the tall trees
Looking up at the tall trees
My father speaks slowly as a train rolls past
He says you can never be free
You can never be free
But try, oh you must try to just let it go
Try, oh you must try to just let it go
