I can't work late although I need the money Gotta get home to my loving honey She'll be there waiting, waiting impatiently Love is on a roll, love is on a good roll Usually I meet with the boys of Friday Only this morning she said this is my day The look she gave me sent a shiver down into my soul Love is on a roll, love is on a good roll Our love is on a roll, our love is on a good roll I'm a songwriter a professional dreamer Mostly a singer but sometimes a screamer I should know if anybody knows at all When love is on a roll, love is on a good roll So I gotta go, I gotta get home early Be with my woman, soft and curvy Makes me feel like a king and not a regular Joe Love is on a roll, love is on a good roll Love is on a roll, love is on a good roll Our love is on a roll, our love is on a good roll Our love is on a roll, our love is on a good roll Our love is on a roll, our love is on a good roll Our love is on a roll, our love is on a good roll Love is on a roll, love is on a good roll Love is on a roll, love is on a good roll
