Little Rock 'N' Roller
By Steve Earle
[E] [A] [E] [A]
[E]Hey little guy, I [A]can't believe you [B]answered the [E]phone
I guess I didn't [C#m]know you could do that, God [A]help me, have I been gone that [E]long
[E]I'm in a truck stop [A]somewhere on the [B]Arkansas [E]line
They got all the [C#m]big trucks here, boy, you [A]ought to hear the big diesels [E]whine
[B]No little guy, your daddy won't be home for a [E]while
It's gonna be [C#m]another couple weeks and [A]another couple thousand [B]miles
Chorus:
So [E]go to sleep little [A]rock 'n' [E]roller
Your [A]daddy's up there knockin' 'em [E]dead tonight
[B]One of these days when [A]you're a little older
[F#]You can ride the big bus and [B]everything will be al[E]right
[E]Until that day you got your [A]mama to [E]hold you
[A]Don't be afraid when she [E]turns out the light
Cause [A]I know there's an angel just for [E]rock 'n' rollers
[B]Watchin' over you and your [E]daddy tonight
[E]No little guy, don't [A]bother your [B]mamma right [E]now
I [C#m]only got a minute and I [A]called to talk to you any[E]how
[E]I know you miss me, [A]God knows I'm [B]thinkin' 'bout [E]you
I got your [C#m]picture in my wallet, it [A]cheers me up sometimes when I'm [E]blue
[B]Well little guy, I'm gonna have to let you [E]go
You know it's [C#m]way past your bedtime, and they're [A]tellin' me we got to [B]roll
