Let It Roll

When I was a boy on my daddy's knee

That's when he said these words to me

He said, "Listen to what I'm gonna tell you, son"

"And you can help the world go round"

Don't climb no mountain, 'cause you might slip

And I know you'll drown if you're savin' ships

Here's a guitar, all shiny and red

And it makes a magic sound

Roll, roll, let it roll

Let it flood down to your soul

Let it talk, let it swing

Play that music, let it ring

Now you can pick Buddy Holly, Chuck Berry too

And you can do anything that you wanna do

Won't cause no harm and never started no wars

And it sounds like fallin' rain

They can call it country, they can call it rock

But I'll play this sucker till the day I drop

If you got any troubles, just tune on in

'Cause it'll ease away your pain

Roll, roll, let it roll

Let it flood down to your soul

Let it talk, let it swing

Play that music, let it ring

Some folks get them college degrees

And then they open up an office and they charge big fees

I never was good for much at all

'Cept playin' kinda loud

I could feel it in my feet, hear it in my head

I even played that music when I'm layin' in bed

It never did get me anywhere at all

But it makes me kinda proud

Roll, roll, let it roll

Let it flood down to your soul

Let it talk, let it swing

Play that music, let it ring

Come on and roll, roll, let it roll

Let it flood down to your soul

Let it talk, let it swing

Play that music, let it ring
