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 mornin',
Didn't know right from wrong
Well, I told my baby,
Before I left that town
Well, I told my baby,
Before I left that town
Well, don't you let nobody,
Tear my barrelhouse down
Well, if the river was whiskey,
And I was a divin' duck
Well, if the river was whiskey,
And I was a divin' duck
Well, I would dive to the bottom,
Never would I come up
Well, I could a had a religion,
This bad old thing instead
Well, I could a had a religion,
This bad old thing instead
Well, all whiskey and women,
Would not let me pray
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 mornin',
Didn't know right from wrong
Well, ahh, mmm-hmmm,
Oww, oww ooo, aww, oww, oh
Aaa, mmm-hmmm,
Oww, oh oh oh oww, oww ooo, aww, oww, oh
