[Chorus:]
Oh my lord, oh my lord
There's a train a coming, you gonna jump on board
Saying, oh my lord, oh my lord
[Verse 1:]
Born in shackles, living in a hole
You gonna let the bad times roll
When daddy left mama, it broke her heart and sore
You gonna let the bad times roll
You try to pick cherries, you gotta go for more
You standing in a fire, wishing it was cool
When you ride with the devil, you gonna play the tour
You gonna let the bad times roll
You gonna let the bad times roll
[Chorus]
[Verse 2:]
Young and restless, out of control
You gonna let the bad times roll
Be careful what you wish for, diamonds or gold
You gonna let the bad times roll
Life is just a gamble, you gonna take control
You gonna piece of storm, and let the full winds blow
When you roll the dice, it's all about the throw
You gonna let the bad times roll
Everybody, you gonna let the bad times roll
[Chorus]
[Bridge:]
We gonna help each other, sisters and brothers
Together we can fight the fight
The reef is flying high but is falling from the sky
The devil is going down tonight
[Chorus] [x3]
