Rollin Along Lyrics - Bachman & Turner - Bachman & Turner

Met 'em on the highway 

Way out on the road 

Where they were a-headin' 

Don't think anybody knows 

Didn't care where, 

Only needed to go 

They're just rollin' along 

Pulled into a truckstop 

A hundred miles to go 

Feelin' kind of beat up 

After eatin' up the road 

Thought we had it tough 

'Til we heard their tale of woe 

They'd been rollin' along 

Livin' on the highway 

Rollin' along 

Travellin' way too far 

Rollin' along 

With the mess they're under 

Lightnin' and the thunder- 

Just rollin' along 

Rollin' along 

Said they'd play for pickin's 

Any place on up the road 

Thought it would come easy 

They'd be rakin' in the dough 

Barely brings a livin' 

Said "I guess it comes slow" 

And they're rollin' along 

Told me they'd seen trouble 

A short time ago 

At a rock n' roll house 

Where they'd tried to steal the show 

Cowboys let 'em have it 

And they showed 'em where to go 

Now they're- 

Rollin along 

Livin' on the highway 

Rollin' along 

Travellin' way too far 

Rollin' along 

With the mess they're under 

Lightnin' and the thunder 

Just rollin' along 

Haven't got an eagle 

Or a place to lay their heads 

Have to run the highway 

Still they're gonna make it 

Still they've got the will 

You know they're gonna make it 

They keep climbin' up the hill 

Rollin' for the highway 

Stood and watched 'em go 

Wonderin' if they'd manage 

As they blew off down the road 

Thinkin' how we'd made this trip 

So many years ago 

Just rollin' along 

Livin' on the highway 

Rollin' along 

Travellin' way too far 

Rollin' along 

With this mess they're under 

Lightnin' and the thunder- 

Just rollin' along 

Rollin' along 

Just rollin' along 

Whoa, rollin' along 

Keep those wheels a-turnin' 

Whoa, rollin' along 

Just rollin' along 

Just rollin' along
