Little Rock 'n' Roller Lyrics

Steve Earle

Hey little guy, I can't believe you answered the phone I guess I didn't know you could do that God help me, have I been gone that long I'm in a truck stop somewhere on the Arkansas line
They got all the big trucks here, boy You ought to hear the big diesels whine No little guy, your daddy won't be home for a while It's gonna be another couple weeks and another couple thousand miles
So go to sleep little rock 'n roller Your daddy's up there knockin' 'em dead tonight One of these days when you're a little older You can ride the big bus and everything will be alright
'Til that day you got your mama to hold you Don't be afraid when she turns out the light 'Cause I know there's an angel just for rock 'n rollers Watchin' over you and your daddy tonight
No little guy, don't bother your mamma right now I only got a minute and I called to talk to you anyhow I Know you miss me, God knows I'm thinkin' 'bout you I got your picture in my wallet
It cheers me up sometimes when I'm blue Well little guy, I'm gonna have to let you go You know it's way past your bedtime And they're tellin' me, "We gotta roll"
So go to sleep little rock 'n roller Your daddy's up there knockin' 'em dead tonight One of these days when you're a little older You can ride the big bus and everything will be alright
'Til that day you got your mama to hold you Don't be afraid when she turns out the light 'Cause I know there's an angel just for rock 'n rollers Watchin' over you and your daddy tonight I know there's an angel just for rock 'n rollers Watchin' over you and your daddy tonight
Go to sleep little rock 'n roller Go to sleep little rock 'n roller Go to sleep little rock 'n roller Go to sleep little rock 'n roller
