  • When life is too much, roll with it, baby
    Don't stop and lose your touch, oh no, baby
    Hard times knocking on your door, I'll tell them you ain't there no more
    Get on through it, roll with it, baby
    Luck'll come and then slip away, you've gotta move, bring it back to stay

    You just roll with it, baby, come on and just roll with it, baby
    You and me, roll with it, baby, hang on and just roll with it, baby

    The way that you love is good as money
    I swear by stars above, sweet as honey
    People think you're down and out, you show them what it's all about
    You can make it, roll with it, baby
    When this world turns its back on you,
    hang in and do that sweet thing you do

    You just roll with it, baby, you just roll with it, baby
    Come on and just roll with it, baby, you and me, just roll with it, baby

    Now there'll be a day you'll get there, baby, you'll hear the music
    play, you'll dance, baby
    You'll leave bad times way behind, nothing but good times on your mind
    You can do it, roll with it, baby
    Then you'll see life will be so nice, it's just a step up to paradise
    You just roll with it, baby, you just roll with it, baby
    You and me, just roll with it, baby, Come on and just roll with it, baby Writer/s: BRIAN HOLLAND, EDWARD JR. HOLLAND, LAMONT DOZIER, STEVE WINWOOD, WILL JENNINGS

  • Anton from EarthA classic, timeless blues number that never grows old. Liking it more today than when it first came out. The video, IMO, seems to fit the song perfectly.
  • Jb from Hanover, NhThis Song Is In The Best British Film Of All Time. The Movie Is Called Nuns On The Run Staring Eric Idle And Robbie Coltrane Who Play Two Nuns On The Run A Must See
