Well, I rolled and I tumbled
Cried the whole night long
Well, I rolled and I tumbled
Cried the whole night long
When I woke up this morning
Didn't know right from wrong
Well, I told my baby
'Fore I left this town
Well, I told my baby
'Fore I left this town
That don't let nobody
Tear my playhouse down
Well, if the river was whiskey
I was a diving duck
Well, if the river was whiskey
I was a diving duck
I would swim to the bottom
Never, never come up
Well, I could have had religion
This bad old thing instead
Well, I could have had religion
This bad old thing instead
But that whiskey and bad men
Would not let me pray
Well, I rolled and I tumbled
Cried the whole night long
Well, I rolled and I tumbled
Cried the whole night long
Well, when I woke up this morning
I didn't know right from wrong
Cried the whole night long
Well, I rolled and I tumbled
Cried the whole night long
When I woke up this morning
Didn't know right from wrong
Well, I told my baby
'Fore I left this town
Well, I told my baby
'Fore I left this town
That don't let nobody
Tear my playhouse down
Well, if the river was whiskey
I was a diving duck
Well, if the river was whiskey
I was a diving duck
I would swim to the bottom
Never, never come up
Well, I could have had religion

Well, I could have had religion
This bad old thing instead
