Silver Plated - Robert Johnson, Dexter Gordon Quintet

I’m a steady rollin' man, I roll both night and day

I’m a steady rollin' man, hmm hmm, I roll both night and day

But I haven’t got no sweet woman, hmm mmm, boys, to be rollin' this-a way

I’m the man that rolls, when icicles is1 hangin' on the tree

I’m the man that rolls, when icicles is1 hangin' on the tree

And now you hear me howlin', baby, hmm hmm mmm, down on my bended knee

I’m a hard workin' man, have been for many years, I know

I’m a hard workin' man, have been for many long years, I know

And some cream puff’s usin' my money, ooh well, babe, but that’ll never be no more

You can’t give your sweet woman, everything she wants in one time

ooh hoo ooo, you can’t give your sweet woman, everything she wants in one time

Well, boys, she get ramblin' in her brain, hmm mmm mmm, some monkey man on her

mind

I’m a steady rollin' man, I roll both night and day

I’m a steady rollin' man, and I roll both night and day

Well I don’t have no sweet woman, hmm mmm, boys, to be rollin' this-a way
