Rolling Down the River lyrics by Pressgang Mutiny

Chorus
Rolling up, rolling down
We’ll all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty four hours to turn around
And go rolling down the river

Verse 1
Well, I once was a rigger, and I worked like hell
Rolling up, rolling down
But now I’m with the O.C.L
Rolling down the river

Rolling up, rolling down
We’ll all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty four hours to turn around
And go rolling down the river

Verse 2
Well, the work is good and the wage is fine
Rolling up, rolling down
When you take a trip on the container line
Rolling down the river

Chorus
Rolling up, rolling down
We’ll all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty four hours to turn around
And go rolling down the river

Verse 3
Well, when I first saw T.E.U
Rolling up, rolling down
I wondered where they stowes the crew
Rolling down the river

Rolling up, rolling down
We’ll all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty four hours to turn around
And go rolling down the river

Well, cargo comes in T.E.U.s
Rolling up, rolling down
A twenty foot box, boys, filled with booze
Rolling down the river

Rolling up, rolling down
We’ll all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty four hours to turn around
And go rolling down the river

Well, there’s a Tilbury girl called Kettle Jane
Rolling up, rolling down
First on the boil then off again
Rolling down the river

And go rolling down the river

And she’s got a friend called Teapot Anne
Rolling up, rolling down

Well, them Tilbury girls go around in pairs
Rolling up, rolling down

So, when the work is done and the day is through
Rolling up, rolling down
You can get ’em by the dock, boys, one and two
Rolling down the river

Rolling up, rolling down
We’ll all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty four hours to turn around
And go rolling down the river

Chorus
Rolling up, rolling down
We’ll all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty four hours to turn around
And go rolling down the river
