Lyrics
Rolling up, rolling down
We'll all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty four hours to turn around
And go rolling down the river
Well, I once was a rigger, and I worked like hell
Rolling up, rolling down
But now I'm with the O.C.L
Rolling down the river
Rolling up, rolling down
We'll all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty four hours to turn around
And go rolling down the river
Well, the work is good and the wage is fine
Rolling up, rolling down
When you take a trip on the container line
Rolling down the river
Rolling up, rolling down
We'll all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty four hours to turn around
And go rolling down the river
Well, when I first saw T.E.U
Rolling up, rolling down
I wondered where they stowes the crew
Rolling down the river
Rolling up, rolling down
We'll all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty four hours to turn around
And go rolling down the river
Well, cargo comes in T.E.U.s
Rolling up, rolling down
A twenty foot box, boys, filled with booze
Rolling down the river
Rolling up, rolling down
We'll all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty four hours to turn around
And go rolling down the river
Well, there's a Tilbury girl called Kettle Jane
Rolling up, rolling down
First on the boil then off again
Rolling down the river
Rolling up, rolling down
We'll all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty four hours to turn around
And go rolling down the river
And she's got a friend called Teapot Anne
Rolling up, rolling down
She gets well brewed and she loves her man
Rolling down the river
Rolling up, rolling down
We'll all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty four hours to turn around
And go rolling down the river
Well, them Tilbury girls go around in pairs
Rolling up, rolling down
You'll never catch them unawares
Rolling down the river
Rolling up, rolling down
We'll all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty four hours to turn around
And go rolling down the river
So, when the work is done and the day is through
Rolling up, rolling down
You can get 'em by the dock, boys, one and two
Rolling down the river
Rolling up, rolling down
We'll all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty four hours to turn around
And go rolling down the river
Rolling up, rolling down
We'll all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty four hours to turn around
And go rolling down the river
