the rolling stones - let it rock (live 1971) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
in the heat of the day down in mobile, alabama
working on the railroad with the steel driving hammer
i gotta get some money to buy some brand new shoes
tryin’ to find somebody to take away these blues
“she don’t love me” hear them singing in the sun
payday’s coming and my work is all done

[guitar solo 1]

[verse 2]
later in the evening when the sun is sinking low
all day i been waiting for the whistle to blow
sitting in a teepee built right on the tracks
rolling them bones ’til the foreman comes back
pick up you belongings boys and scatter about
we’ve got an off-schedule train comin’ two miles out

[guitar solo 2]

[verse 3]
everybody’s jumping and scrambling around
picking up their money, tearing the teepee down
the foreman was in a panic, ’bout to go insane
trying to get the workers out the way of the train
engineer blows the whistle loud and long
can’t stop the train, gotta let it roll on

[guitar solo 3]

[instrumental outro]

[audience applause]
