I've seen worry and strife,
trouble was my middle name.
it's the light of my life,
gonna en d all my misery and pain.
Roll along, gonna, roll along, gonna,
put down my troubles, roll along.
I am on the glory road, gonna put down my load,
gonna put down my troubles and roll right along
I was tired, gettin' old,
lookin' for that pot of gold
Money was all there was for me
But I'm on the road to glory,
I'll be walkin' in the fold
And that golden light eternal I can see
Roll along, yonah, roll along, yonah
Put down my troubles, roll along, roll along
I am on my glory road, yonah
Well, I toil all the day with money as my pay
But each night my soul still would cry
Till the Sab bath when I found
that golden chariot on its way
And it leads me to that place on high
Roll along, Nona, roll along, Nona,
put down my troubles, roll along,
I'm on the glory road, Nona,
put down my troubles and roll right along
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah,
Well, my back is getting sore
and my head is getting weak
So too scared that I could die
But I'm moving down the track,
there'll be no more turning back
Gonna ride up through that
Roll along, roll along, roll along,
Roll along, Doña, roll along, Doña
Put down my troubles and right on
I am on my glory road, Jonah
Put down my troubles and go right on
