Marshall County Hangmen – Roll, Roll, Roll lyrics

The lonesome highway song
Keeps ringin' in my ears
Sometimes you get so tired
Of travelin' throughout the years
I'd like to someday settle down
Live a simple life
Maybe take some time to know
My children and my wife
Doin' things for others
Will always take it's toll
But in the meantime.... Roll... Roll... Roll

Chorus
Roll, Roll, Roll,
Gotta keep a movin'
Roll, Roll, Roll,
There's things I've never seen
Roll, Roll, Roll,
I'll slow down someday
But in the meantime
Roll, Roll, Roll,

Seems like all my life
I been tryin'
To reach the brass ring
When you finally get it
It don't mean a thing
Goals are fine if you've got nothin' left to lose
When you got family you really have to choose
Doin' things for yourself
Will always take it's toll
But in the meantime
Roll, Roll, Roll,

Chorus
Roll, Roll, Roll,
Gotta keep a movin'
Roll, Roll, Roll,
There's things I've never seen
Roll, Roll, Roll,
I'll slow down someday
But in the meantime
Roll, Roll, Roll,

Throughout these 50 years
I been tryin' to figure out
Just what the heck this world
Is really all about
You can find happiness
It's been there all the time
When you finally find it
Your life will start to shine
Searchin' for happiness
You may someday reach that goal
But in the meantime
Roll, Roll, Roll

Chorus
Roll, Roll, Roll,
Gotta keep a movin'
Roll, Roll, Roll,
There's things I've never seen
Roll, Roll, Roll,
I'll slow down someday
But in the meantime
Roll, Roll, Roll,
