"Rollin' & Tumblin'" lyrics

"Rollin' & Tumblin'"
(originally by Hambone Willie Newbern)

Well, I rolled and I tumbled, cried the whole night long
Well, I rolled and I tumbled, cried the whole night long
Well, I woke up this morning, didn't know right from wrong

If the river was whiskey, I'd jump right in and drown
If the river was whiskey, I'd jump right in and drown
Lord, take me up to heaven, I will not make a sound

Well, I could have chose religion, I chose the bad luck instead
Said, I could have chose religion, I chose the bad luck instead
Now I'm a-laughing and I'm singing, gonna be a long time dead

Well, I rolled and I tumbled, cried the whole night long
Yes, I rolled and tumbled, cried the whole night long
Well, I woke up this morning, didn't know right from wrong

Rollin' and tumblin', rollin' and tumblin'
Rollin' and tumblin', rollin' and tumblin'
Rollin' and tumblin', rollin' and tumblin'
Rollin' and tumblin', rollin' and tumblin'
