Roll Julia Songtext
von The Deep Dark Woods

Oh I stray from the path I am wicked I am weak
So demanding is the task and my days they are so bleak
With silent admiration I watch them disappear
And I beg the Lord to keep my heart sincere

So roll, roll
Julia Roll
Oh won′t you take me in tow

My feet they do stumble and my eyes can't see
The evening sun is sinking and I got nowhere to be
My hands they do tremble, I don′t know where I belong
My head is pounding and my honor weighs a ton


So roll, roll, Julia roll
Oh won't you take me in tow

Once my race has run and my tired eyes can see
My jaded heart is humbled and I am close to thee
Will you take me over yonder to the cabin on the hill?
Will the pearly gates swing open and let my soul lie still?

I'm ready to go, I′m loaded up on wine
How hard it is to leave it behind
My fore and my mainsail is set Julia Brown
I hope to God that I never let you down

So roll, roll, Julia roll
Oh won′t you take me in tow
Oh roll, roll, Julia roll
Oh won't you take me in tow
