Standard (EADGBE)

Just a roll, just a roll. Just a roll on the drum

Just a roll, just a roll and the war has begun

Now the right things the wrong things

No more excuses to come

Just one step at the time and the war has begun

(Chorus)

(Instrumental break, same chords)

She's runaway she's runaway

And she ran so bitterly

Now call for your coloured friends

Don't you call for me

(Chorus)

(Instrumental break. Leadsinger may go out to take a lunch)

Don't you cry don't you cry

Don't you cry upon the sea

Don't you cry don't you cry

For your lady and me

(Chorus twice)
