Louis Gottlie
Rock-a-bout, rock-a-bout, rock-a-bout
Chorus:
Come on and rock-about my Saro Jane (Repeat)
Oh, there's nothing to do but to sit down and sing and rock-about my Saro Jane
I've got a wife and five little children Believe I'll take a trip on the big Macmillan Oh, Saro Jane
A guy like me don't have no home I make my livin' on my shoulder bone Oh, Sara Jane Oh, Saro Jane Oh, Saro Jane
(Chorus)
Woke up this mornin' feeling mighty mean, thinkin' 'bout my good gal in New Orleans Oh, Saro Jane
Fireman, keep those boilers hot I want to reach town by six o'clock Oh, Saro Jane Oh, Saro Jane Oh, Saro Jane
(Chorus)
Back's getting' tired and shoulder's gettin' sore Each sack is bigger than the one before Oh, Saro Jane
A rock in my stomach and a watchin' my head Gettin' superstitious 'bout my pork and bread Oh, Saro Jane Oh, Saro Jane
(Chorus)
