Cut me down | |
Bury this rosary | |
Somewhere out of town | |
Somewhere out by the sea | |
And take this ring | |
Give it to Emily | |
Tell her I'm peaceful now | |
Tell her I've been released | |
I will be rolling on | |
I will be rolling on | |
Well I know that drill | |
I know it all too well | |
It starts like a lonely voice | |
And shifts to a tolling bell | |
Like rain on the dusty ground | |
Small bones in the driest well | |
The spark breeds a fiery tongue | |
And the tongues kiss the cheek of Hell | |
And I will be rolling on | |
I will be rolling on | |
I have had my part to play | |
Now I am going home | |
There's no telling which way, boys | |
This thing is going to take hold | |
From the fruit on a poplar tree | |
To the bruise round a band of gold | |
From the blood in a far country | |
To the war of just growing old | |
We travel a lower road | |
And it's lonely and it is cold | |
But we will be rolling on | |
We will be rolling on | |
We've had our part to play | |
Now we are going home | |
We will keep rolling on | |
We will keep rolling on | |
‘Cause for every midnight hour | |
There's always a rising sun |
Cut me down | |
Bury this rosary | |
Somewhere out of town | |
Somewhere out by the sea | |
And take this ring | |
Give it to Emily | |
Tell her I' m peaceful now | |
Tell her I' ve been released | |
I will be rolling on | |
I will be rolling on | |
Well I know that drill | |
I know it all too well | |
It starts like a lonely voice | |
And shifts to a tolling bell | |
Like rain on the dusty ground | |
Small bones in the driest well | |
The spark breeds a fiery tongue | |
And the tongues kiss the cheek of Hell | |
And I will be rolling on | |
I will be rolling on | |
I have had my part to play | |
Now I am going home | |
There' s no telling which way, boys | |
This thing is going to take hold | |
From the fruit on a poplar tree | |
To the bruise round a band of gold | |
From the blood in a far country | |
To the war of just growing old | |
We travel a lower road | |
And it' s lonely and it is cold | |
But we will be rolling on | |
We will be rolling on | |
We' ve had our part to play | |
Now we are going home | |
We will keep rolling on | |
We will keep rolling on | |
' Cause for every midnight hour | |
There' s always a rising sun |
Cut me down | |
Bury this rosary | |
Somewhere out of town | |
Somewhere out by the sea | |
And take this ring | |
Give it to Emily | |
Tell her I' m peaceful now | |
Tell her I' ve been released | |
I will be rolling on | |
I will be rolling on | |
Well I know that drill | |

And shifts to a tolling bell | |
