Well it’s early in the mornin’ baby when I rise a-well-a,
Well it’s earli in the mornin’ when I rise a-well-a,
It’s earli in the mornin’ baby when I rise a-well-a,
Got the aches and pains Lordy baby
Make a man want to die a well-a.
Chorus:
But it’s hard it’s hard Lordy rollin’,
It’s a hard it’s a hard Lordy rollin’,
Well it’s hard it’s a hard Lordy rollin’,
Come on boys well-a.
Takes rocks and gravel to make-a,
To make a solid road a-well-a,
It takes rocks and gravel to make-a,
To make a solid road a-well-a,
Takes rocks and a gravel to make-a,
To make a solid road a-well-a,
But it never gets done, Lordy baby,
Less’n the cap’n’s get a gun a-well-a.
Chorus
Well it’s hard it’s hard Lordy rolling
It’s a hard it’s a hard Lordy rolling
Well it’s hard it’s a hard Lordy rolling
Come on boys a well-a.
Well-a whosoever told it he told-a,
He told a dirty lie a-well-a,
A-well-a whosoever told it he told-a,
He told a dirty lie a-well-a,
I say whosoever told it he told-a,
He told a dirty lie, Lordy baby,
Said he heard that my woman done leave me,
Well, oh, well-a, well-a.VIEW COMPLETE FEWER LYRICS
