BOB SEGER - Let It Rock lyrics

rate me

In the heat of the day, down in mobile, alabama<br>Workin' on the railroad with a steel drivin' hammer<br>Tryin' to get some money, get some brand new shoes<br>Tryin to find a lady, chase away my blues<br>Hot and wasted lord sweatin' in the sun<br>'cause I'm not a foreman 'till my work is all done<br><br>Later in the evening when the sun is sinking low<br>I'll be out there waitin' for the whistle to blow<br>Sittin' in the teepee smokin' out on the track<br>Rollin' them bones (meaning dice) till my foreman get back<br>Suddenly I hear the breakman up and shout<br>There's a non-stop train comin' two miles out<br><br>Everybody jumpin' and a scrambling around<br>Tryin to get the line an get the teepee down<br>Railroad owner's 'bout to go insane<br>Tryin' to get the workers out the way of the train<br>Here come the engineer honk his horn<br>He got a non-stop train, we got to let it roll on!
