+ | 1. Round goes the wheel of fortune, don't be afraid to ride | ||
+ | There' | ||
+ | There' | ||
+ | When we go rolling home, when we go rolling home | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Chorus:** | ||
+ | //Rolling home, when we go rolling home | ||
+ | When we go rolling, rolling, when we go rolling home// | ||
+ | |||
+ | 2. The gentry in their fine array do prosper night and morn | ||
+ | While we unto the fields must go to plough and sow the corn | ||
+ | The rich may steal the power, but the glory is our own | ||
+ | When we go rolling home, when we go rolling home | ||
+ | |||
+ | [Chorus] | ||
+ | |||
+ | 3. The frost is on the hedgerow, the icy winds do blow | ||
+ | While we poor weary labourers strive through the driving snow | ||
+ | Our hopes fly up to glory, up where the lark has flown | ||
+ | When we go rolling home, when we go rolling home | ||
+ | |||
+ | [Chorus] | ||
+ | |||
+ | 4. The summer of resentment, the winter of despair | ||
+ | The journey to contentment is set with trap and snare | ||
+ | Stand to and stand together, your labour is your own | ||
+ | When we go rolling home, when we go rolling home | ||
+ | |||
+ | [Chorus] | ||
+ | |||
+ | 5. So pass the bottle round and let the toast go free | ||
+ | Here's a health to every labourer wherever they may be | ||
+ | Fair wages are now and ever, let's reap what we have sown | ||
+ | When we go rolling home, when we go rolling home | ||
+ | |||
+ | [Chorus] | ||
