This is a song from the Deguello Motel Album by Roger Alan Wade.
I think it's pretty close to the original. I know that he's foolin' around with his fingers at the
D-chord (to Dsus2). So you guys will maybe do the same. Keep on foolin'.
Peace out fellas

Hello Baby, it’s your ramblin’ ‘rebel boy

Broke down and busted, and that whippoorwill
D
Callin’ me home

I just got to get on back to you, girl
D G
I just got to get back to Dixie Land
D A
Say, why won’t you go down to western union
G D
and wire some money to your man
Refrain:
D G D
I come rollin’ like a bolt of lightning through the pourin’ rain
G D
I’ll be rollin’ ‘round the bend like a highball train
G
I come runnin’ back to you, girl
D
Wide open all the way
Cadd9 G
I’ll be rollin’ down, I’ll be rollin’ down

D G D
Meet me yonder by the crossroad where I left you on that day
G D
Meet me yonder by the crossroad where I left you on that day
A
Outside that old Zion church yard
G D
A stone’s throw from Robert Johnson’s grave
A G
You just wire me some bus fare, honey
D
And before that rooster crows
A
Girl, your ramblin’ rebel boy
G D
Be on the Greyhound, headed home
Refrain

I come rollin’ like a bolt of lightning through the pourin’ rain

Wide open all the way

I’ll be rollin’ down, I’ll be rollin’ down
