Rollin', rollin' on down the line
The sweetest little gal that I ever did know
I had to leave her behind
But she said, daddy, don't leave me here to whine
You're breakin' my heart right half in two
By rollin' on down the line
But I kept on rollin', rollin' on down the line
The sweetest little gal that I ever did know
I had to leave her behind
Now she said, baby, won't you please change your mind
There's nothin' you could say or do
That would ever make me change my mind
And I kept on rollin', rollin' on down the line
The sweetest little gal that I ever did know
I had to leave her behind

And she said, honey, don't leave me here alone
'Cause if you do and you get back, you won't find me at home
And I kept on rollin', rollin' on down the line
The worst mistake that I ever made
Was leavin' that gal behind
And I kept on rollin'... and I kept on rollin'
