Rollin' And Tumblin' - The Gaslight Anthem

I don’t think I’m goin' out anymore

You better find some other body to comfort.

When I was trembling baby you was a diamond,

But you ain’t a diamond no more.

So what you wanna say is my head is a hurricane

Well l-l-l-let me sleep on that, uh huh, alright.

You say I’m hopelessly devoted to misery

Well I don’t wanna be so devoted no more, aw yeah

And all of my friends wanna get into heaven

And all I keep thinkin' is «I wish you were here»

I heard that they been callin' me «The Great Depression»

Rollin' and tumblin', breakin' my own heart again

Shimmy shimmy shake baby right in my blood stream

I don’t know what it was that got in my room.

My ticker-tape heart broke and everything shook in here

But I learned it could be worse.

So what you wanna say is my head is a weather-vane

Spinning with the wind chime, right.

Baby I was born on the fourth of July,

Exploding like a firework, aw yeah

And all of my friends wanna get into heaven

And all I keep thinkin' is «I wish you were here»

I heard that they been callin' me «The Great Depression»

Rollin' and tumblin'

And all of my friends wanna get into heaven

And all I keep thinkin' is «I wish you were here»

I heard that they been callin' me «The Great Depression»

Rollin' and tumblin'

So should I take everything, all your temporary medicines?

Should I take your reds, your blues, and your cocaine?

Should I take something to try on the weekend?

Should I take anything… or did you mean everything?

When I hit the wall, wrecked from it all

You put flowers down on the cold ground

And cry me a river

And assure me I’m crazy

While you question the answers

And then you lean on my best friends

Until you find better weather

And you take a vacation

I heard you got all my letters

Signed «The Great Depression»

Baby rollin' and tumblin'
