Ely Joe Hold On lyrics

Reeling cross the mossy swamp
Texarkana, Louisiana, listening to the engine thump
Nerves are shattered, what does it matter?
If the rain pitter patters down the tree stump

Looks like the rivers low
Johnny and Lindy, ain't they windy listening to the radio
The rivers steamin', what are you dreamin'?
Leaning half way out the window

Roll, roll, roll, we're rollin' on
Blurred barbed wire out the window
Turn around and you'll be gone

Headed up east about broke
In my tuxedo, Holy Toledo, chokin' on the factory smoke
There go the Great Lakes, I got a headache
And I ain't trying to make no joke


Roll, roll, roll, we're rollin' on
Blurred barbed wire out the window
Turn around and you'll be gone

Now we gotta pay our toll
New York City, ain't she pretty, blazing like a thunderbolt?
Nerves are shattered what's it matter
If the rain pitter patters down the manhole

Roll, roll, roll, we're rollin' on
Blow, blow, blow wind blow alone
Hold on, honey, we're rollin' on
Roll, roll, roll, we're rollin' on
