Let It Rock Lyrics
by Chuck Berry
Intro:
Verse 1:
Well in the heat of the day, down in Mobile, Alabama
Working on the railroad with a steel driving hammer
I Got to get some money, buy some brand new shoes
Try to find somebody take away these blues
She don't love me here, I'm singing in the sun
Payday's coming when my work is all done
Verse 2:
Well later in the evening when the sun is sinking low
All day I've been waiting for the whistle to blow
Sitting in a tee-pee built right on the track
Rolling them bones 'till the foreman come back
Pick up your belongings boys and scatter about
We got an off scheduled train coming two miles out
Verse 3:
Everybody's scrambling and jumping around
Picking up the money, tear the teep-pee down
Foreman was in panic, 'bout to go insane
Trying to get the workers out the way of the train
Engineer blowing the whistle long and long
Can't stop the train we got to let it roll on
