Let It Rock

Lyrics for Let It Rock

In the heat of the day down in mobile Alabama Working on the railroad with the steel driving hammer I gotta make some money to buy some brand new shoes Tryin' to find somebody to take away these blues "She don't love me," hear them singing in the sun Payday coming when my work is all done Well, in the evening when the sun is sinking low All day, I been waiting for the whistle to blow Sitting in a teepee built right on the tracks Rolling them bones 'til the foreman comes back Pick up your belongings boys scatter about We've got an off-schedule train comin' two miles out Everybody's scrambling, running around Picking up their money, tearing the teepee down A foreman wants to panic, out to go insane Trying to get the workers out the way of the train Engineer blowing the whistle long and long Can't stop the train, you have to let it roll on
