Go along and sing a song
And give them blues a chase
For the frowns put troubles in your eyes
And the wrinkles all over your face.
The jaybird saw a little worm,
A wiggling to and fro
And on the sopt where the worm once stood
Thre ain't no worm no more.
CHORUS: Oh the clouds gwine roll away
Oh the clouds gwine roll away
But I don't care how hard it rains
Cause the clouds gwine roll away
(Harmonica)
I know the hen come from the egg
And the egg come from the hen
But now I wonder which was first
And how it's gwine to end
Little bird in guilded cage
He might-a been a whistlin' yet
But he flew out one rainy night
And got his whistle wet
CHORUS: Oh the clouds gwine roll away
Oh the clouds gwine roll away
But I don't care how hard it rains
Cause the clouds gwine roll away
My gal said you're a little horse
I said "No your wrong.
I could never be a little horse,
Cause my hair's most to long."
The lightnin' bug can never tell
What he's trying to find.
But he keeps on flying round and around
With his headlight on behind.
CHORUS: Oh the clouds gwine roll away
Oh the clouds gwine roll away
But I don't care how hard it rains
Cause the clouds gwine roll away
