ROLLIN' HOME

Round goes the wheel of fortune. Don't be afraid to ride.
There's a land of milk and honey waits on the other side.
There'll be peace and there'll be plenty. You'll never need to roam,
When we go rollin' home, (2ND VOICE: When we go) rollin' home.

CHORUS:
1ST VOICE: Rollin' home, rollin' home.
Rollin', rollin', when we go rollin' home.
2ND VOICE: Rollin' home, when we go rollin' home
When we go rollin', rollin', when we go rollin' home
3RD VOICE: R-o-l-l-i-n', r-o-l-l-i-n',
R-o-l-l-i-n ', when we go rollin' home
4TH. VOICE: R-o-l-l-i-n' rollin home
Rollin', rollin', when we go rollin' home

The gentry in his fine array, who prosper night and morn,
While we unto the fields must go to plough and sow the corn.
The rich may steal the power, but the glory is our own,
When we go rollin' home, when we go rollin' home. CHORUS

The summer of resentment, the winter of despair,
The journey to contentment is set with trap and snare.
Stand true and stand together. Your labour is your own,
When we go rollin' home, when we go rollin' home. CHORUS

The frost is on the hedgerow. The icy winds do blow,
While we poor weary labourers strike through the sleet and snow.
Our hopes fly up to glory, up where the larks do go,
When we go rollin' home, when we go rollin' home. CHORUS

So pass the bottle round and let the toasts go free.
Here's a health to every labourer, whoever he may be.
Fair wages now and ever; let's reap what we have sown,
When we go rollin' home, when we go rollin' home. CHORUS

REPEAT 1ST VERSE THEN CHORUS TWICE
