Rollin' On

[Verse 1: Emmylou Harris]

Been kickin' sawdust in these clothes

For a blue moon and a red nose

The boys will put 'em up, and tear 'em down

We'll wash away the dirt

Just a glass a day ain't gonna hurt

Pretty soon we'll move on out of town

[Verse 2: Mark Knopfler & Emmylou Harris, Emmylou Harris]

We pass them by across the plains

We don't even try to catch the names

It's supper time and their kids are home from school

They draw the shades on their shops

While we go a'checking through the props

And putting on the paint to play the fool

[Chorus: Mark Knopfler & Emmylou Harris, Emmylou Harris]

Then we're rollin' on, rollin' on

Feeling, better than we did last night

Rollin' on, rollin' on

It's hard sometimes

Pretty much it's alright

[Verse 3: Mark Knopfler & Emmylou Harris, Mark Knopfler]

I'll go soft shoe when it rains

I'll go shuffle through the aches and pains

Mr. Young-at-heart that's what I try to be

They all laugh and cry

They get to feeling better and that is why

If it was good for you, truly it was good for me

[Chorus: Mark Knopfler & Emmylou Harris, Emmylou Harris]

Then we're rollin' on, rollin' on

Feeling better than we did last night

Rollin' on, rollin' on

It's hard sometimes

Pretty much it's alright
