Song Lyrics for Roll Me A Dream (1910)

Well I been workin’ all day down the ol’ main street
Feet gettin’ tired, draggin’ in the heat
Stopped by a friend who winked at me
Said, I got somethin’ fine that’ll set you free

We slipped ‘round back where the lamplight swayed
He pulled out a little twist he’d rolled that day
I took one puff, and mercy me
The whole wide world felt soft and sweet

And the stars came peekin’ through the dusk so slow
Wind hummed a tune only dreamers know

Oh, roll me a dream, boys, roll me a dream
Light it up easy with a slow little gleam
Pass it around like a friendly breeze
Roll me a dream, boys, roll me a dream

We sat on crates by the old depot
Trains clanked by with a midnight glow
I laughed ’til my troubles ran off the rails
Like smoke floatin’ free on a gentle gale

Some folks talk big about fancy things
But give me a tune and a puff that sings
A simple night with some simple folk
That’s all I need in a cloud of smoke

Lanterns flickered while the world felt light
And we kept on hummin’ through the quiet night

Oh, roll me a dream, boys, roll me a dream
Light it up easy with a slow little gleam
Pass it around like a friendly breeze
Roll me a dream, boys, roll me a dream

Yeah, roll one slow, let the night feel clean
Roll me a dream, boys, roll me a dream
