Down the Line (version 1) Songtext
von Buddy & Bob

Well, my old car′s a-rollin' down the line
Thoughts of my baby runnin′ through my mind
She's a-waitin' for me, I gotta be on time
I gotta roll, roll, roll, roll, roll, roll
I gotta roll, roll, roll, roll, roll, roll

Well, the white marks flyin′ on the road below
Man, I′m ready and flyin' low
My baby′s waitin', I can′t go slow
I gotta roll, roll, roll, roll, roll, roll
I gotta roll, roll, roll, roll, roll, roll

Well, a big policeman pulled alongside me
He said, "Boy, you ain't quite as fast as me"
I showed him a picture of that baby of mine
He said, "Boy, you gotta roll on down that line"

Well, my old car′s a-rollin' down the line
Thoughts of my baby runnin' through my mind
She′s a-waitin′ for me, I gotta be on time
I gotta roll, roll, roll, roll, roll, roll
I gotta roll, roll, roll, roll, roll, roll


Well, my old car's a-rollin′ down the line
Thoughts of my baby runnin' through my mind
She′s a-waitin' for me, I gotta be on time
I gotta roll, roll, roll, roll, roll, roll
I gotta roll, roll, roll, roll, roll, roll

Well, the white marks flyin′ on the road below
Man, I'm ready and flyin' low
My baby′s waitin′, I can't go slow
I gotta roll, roll, roll, roll, roll, roll
I gotta roll, roll, roll, roll, roll, roll

Well, a big policeman pulled alongside me
He said, "Boy, you ain′t quite as fast as me"
I showed him a picture of that baby of mine
He said, "Boy, you gotta roll on down that line"

Well, my old car's a-rollin′ down the line
Thoughts of my baby runnin' through my mind
She′s a-waitin' for me, I gotta be on time
I gotta roll, roll, roll, roll, roll, roll
I gotta roll, roll, roll, roll, roll, roll
Roll on down the line
