Let It Rock
(Chuck Berry)
Music transcribed by: Scott Holcomb
Intro:
| /  /  /  / |
  B        A

Verse 1:
    B
Way up in the evening, down in Mobile, Alabama
Working on the railroad with a steel driving hammer
E
Got to make some money, buy some brand new shoes
B
Try to find somebody take away these blues
F#
She don't love me here, I'm singing in the sun
B
Payday's coming and my work is all done

Verse 2:
Early in the evening when the sun is sinking low
All day I've been waiting for the whistle to blow
Sitting in a tee-pee built right on the track
Rolling them bones 'till the foreman come back
Pick up your belongings boys and scatter about
We got an off scheduled train coming two miles out

Verse 3:
Everybody's scrambling and running around
Picking up the money, tear the teep-pee down
Foreman was in panic, 'bout to go insane
Trying to get the workers out the way of the train
Engineer blowing the whistle loud and long
Can't stop the train we got to let it roll on
