Roll Me Over
Now this is number one, and the fun has just begun
Roll me over, lay me down and do it again
Roll me over, in the clover *
Roll me over, lay me down and do it again.
And this is number two, and I’m taking off her shoe
Roll me over, lay me down and do it again
Roll me over, in the clover
Roll me over, lay me down and do it again.
number three… My hand is on her knee
Roll me over, lay me down and do it again
Roll me over, in the clover
Roll me over, lay me down and do it again.
number four…She’s beggin’ me for more
Roll me over, lay me down and do it again
Roll me over, in the clover
Roll me over, lay me down and do it again.
number five…We’re startin in to jive
Roll me over, lay me down and do it again
Roll me over, in the clover
Roll me over, lay me down and do it again.
number six… She’s starting to do tricks
Roll me over, lay me down and do it again
Roll me over, in the clover
Roll me over, lay me down and do it again.
number seven…she thinks that she’s in Heaven
Roll me over, lay me down and do it again
Roll me over, in the clover
Roll me over, lay me down and do it again.
number eight…the doctor’s at the gate
Roll me over, lay me down and do it again
Roll me over, in the clover
Roll me over, lay me down and do it again.
number nine… the twins are doin’ fine
Roll me over, lay me down and do it again
Roll me over, in the clover
Roll me over, lay me down and do it again.
number ten… we’re starting in again.
Roll me over, lay me down and do it again
Roll me over, in the clover
Roll me over, lay me down and do it again.
* The song was exceptionally popular in 1944 and just after WWII.
Sometimes sung: “Roll me over, Yankee soldier..” and with other versions of more bawdy lyrics.
