Make the Waterwheel Roll

 

Make the Waterwheel Roll Lyrics

Make the waterwheel roll make the waterwheel roll
Boss man boss man my hands are cold
Shut up boy make the waterwheel roll
Make the waterwheel roll make the waterwheel roll

Grind that corn and make that meal
The boss man's belly just gotta be filled
Grind that corn and make that bread
The boss man's young un's all gotta be fed

Make the waterwheel roll make the waterwheel roll
Boss man boss man he sure is mean
Thinkin' my body is a steam machine
Make the waterwheel roll make the waterwheel roll

Ole Willie John don't work too hard
Cause he's got a woman in the boss man's yard
I wanna run away but I'd be found
Boss man's got two big blood hounds


Feel that rhythm in my soul
Sing my song while the waterwheel rolls
Workin' all day in the cold cold rain
I wish my Lord would call my name

Make the waterwheel roll make the waterwheel roll

Make the Waterwheel Roll Singers

Carl Smith (Billboard hit 1960) 1960
