Well I am just a vagabond A drifter on the run And eloquent profanity It rolls right off my tongue And I have dined in palaces Drunk wine with kings and queens And darling on darling You're the best thing I ever seen Won't you roll me easy So slow and easy Take my independence With no apprehension no tension Walk in, talk in paradise Sweet paradise Well I been around this country From Denver to the oceans And I never met girls that could sing so sweet
Like the angels that live in Houston Singing roll me easy So slow and easy Play your concertina be a temptress Darling I'm defenseless Sing in harmony, in unison Sweet harmony Gotta hoist the flag and I'll beat your drum Sing in harmony, in unison Sweet harmony Gotta hoist the flag and I'll beat your drum Woah roll me easy So slow and easy Take my independence With no apprehension no tension Walk in, talk in paradise Sweet paradise
