Roll the Woodpile down

Away down South where the cocks da crow,
Way' down in Florida
Them gals all dance to the old banjo.
And we 'll roll the woodpile down

Refrain:
Rollin! Rollin! Rollin the whole world round,
That brown gal of mine's on the Georgia line!
And we 'll roll the woodpile down!

When I was a young man in my prime,
Way' down in Florida
I danced with the brown gals two at a time.
And we 'll roll the woodpile down

Refrain

We'll roll him high and we'll roll him low,
Way' down in Florida
We'll hoist him up anyway we'll go.
And we 'll roll the woodpile down

Refrain

Oh – roll and bust her is the cry,
Way' down in Florida
A black man's wage is never high.
And we 'll roll the woodpile down

Refrain

One more pull and that'll do,
Way' down in Florida
For we're the boys to kick her through.
And we 'll roll the woodpile down

Refrain
