lyrics

Rollin'
Keep on Rollin'
Toadsuck, Rollin'

I'm a two dollar man on a ten dollar horse
Every penny I got I got from the divorce
Because I picked the fattest daughter of a rich man's flock
But it don't make no difference to a thirsty cock-eyed man

Rollin'
Keep on Rollin'
Toadsuck, Rollin'
Keep on Rollin'

Well I don't mind if she's dry and plain
That's a Panhandle girl; all gristle and mean
But I don't live for today, man I got big plans
'Cuz I'm a tomorrow man

Rollin'
Keep on Rollin'
Toadsuck, Rollin'
Keep on Rollin'

Well I rolled into Dalhart with a cheque in my grip
And I looked at the Sherrif with his gun at his hip
Two hollow eyed Negroes and a hate-filled Red
Were staring from the gibbet like they's already dead

Rollin'
Keep on Rollin'
Toadsuck, Rollin'
Keep on Rollin'

Well the croupier smiled as I played my hand
Put it all on Red as the blood hit the sand
Now I'm taking my winnings to the National Grand
Cuz I'm a tomorrow man

Rollin'
Keep on Rollin'
Toadsuck, Rollin'
Keep on Rollin'

Well I made up my mind to get out of the dust
In March '35 I said New York or bust
So I packed up my bags and I got on a train
To get out of a town that was circlin' the drain

Rollin'
Keep on Rollin'
Toadsuck, Rollin'
Keep on Rollin'

Well on April 13th I put it all on Black
And I lost every dime, but I ain't goin' back
Then the very next day the Roller's at my door
She said "Son, it's been fun, but there ain't no tomorrow no more"

Rollin'
Keep on Rollin'
Toadsuck, Rollin'
Keep on Rollin'
Black Rollers Roll.

about

Captain Vulpine! Portland, Oregon

Culled from the muzzard infested lands of inbetween, Captain Vulpine wanders the ever-dying mortal world in search of nothing at all. Shortly after discovering whiskey, all was lost- and the disastrous memoirs of lands and minds long since gone now linger in these culminations of manifested misery and madness. ... more
