Roll 'Em Pete Lyrics

Jimmy Witherspoon Roll 'Em Pete

Well, I got a gal, she lives up on that hill
Well, I got a gal, lives up on that hill
If she don't love me, I love her still

You're so beautiful, you've got to die someday
Well, you're so beautiful, you've got to die someday
All I want's a little loving, just before you pass away

Roll 'em, boy, gonna jump for joy
Yeah, man, happy as a baby boy
Don't bring me nothing for Christmas but a cheap, cheap toy

Blow man!
[Saxophone solo]

Well, I'm going away, leaving tomorrow night
Well, I'm going away, leaving tomorrow night
Everything's okay 'cause I talked to my baby last night

Leroy Vinnegar!
[Bass solo]
Leroy Vinnegar, ladies and gentlemen

We'll ba-chi ba-chi ba-chi, ba-chi all night long
We'll ba-chi ba-chi ba-chi, ba-chi all night long
We'll ba-chi ba-chi ba-chi on the doggone telephone

[Drum solo]
Mel Lewis

Well, bye-bye
Bye-bye
Bye-bye, bye-bye baby
Bye-bye
