Roll Me Over In The Clover

Words & Music:

Traditional

 

Another one that I learned at girls' camp and later could only find on Oscar Brand's "Bawdy Songs & Backroom Ballads, Vol. 4".  There are a host of lyric variations out there.  Enjoy!

This is number one, and we're really having fun.

        G                             C

Roll me over, lay me down and do it again.

Oh, this is number two, and his hand is on my shoe.

Roll me over, lay me down and do it again.

 

CHORUS:

        C            F

Roll me over, in the clover (or, Yankee soldier)

        C            G                C

Roll me over, lay me down and do it again.

 

This is number three and his hand is on my knee.

Roll me over, lay me down and do it again.

Oh, this is number four, and he's got me on the floor.

Roll me over, lay me down and do it again.

 

CHORUS:

 

Oh, this is number nine, and I'm feeling pretty fine.

Roll me over, lay me down and do it again.

This is number ten and let's do it all again.

Roll me over, lay me down and do it again.

 

CHORUS:
