Words for Uke assist songs! :)

Down By the Riverside

Gonna lay down my sword and shield down by the riverside
Down by the riverside, down by the riverside
Gonna lay down my sword and shield down by the riverside
And study war no more

I ain't gonna study war no more
I ain't gonna study war no more
I ain't gonna study war no more

I'm gonna join hands with everyone down by the riverside
Down by the riverside, down by the riverside
I'm gonna join hands with everyone down by the riverside
And study war no more

I ain't gonna study war no more
I ain't gonna study war no more
I ain't gonna study war no more
I ain't gonna study war no more
I ain't gonna study war no more
I ain't gonna study war no more

Gonna lay down my sword and shield down by the riverside
Down by the riverside, down by the riverside
Gonna lay down my sword and shield down by the riverside
And study war no more

I ain't gonna study war no more
I ain't gonna study war no more
I ain't gonna study war no more
I ain't gonna study war no more
I ain't gonna study war no more
I ain't gonna study war no more

Roll In My Sweet Baby's Arms

I ain't gonna work on the railroad
Ain't gonna work on the farm
Lay around the shack 
Til the mail train comes back
And roll in my sweet baby's arms

Roll in my sweet baby's arms
Roll in my sweet baby's arms
Lay around the shack 
Til the mail train comes back
And roll in my sweet baby's arms

Well, mama's a beauty operator
Sister can wheel and can spin
Daddy owns an interest in an old cotton gin
Watch that ol' money roll in.

Roll in my sweet baby's arms
Roll in my sweet baby's arms
Lay around the shack 
Til the mail train comes back
And roll in my sweet baby's arms

I Don't Know My Name

I don't know my name
I don't play by the rules of the game
So you say I'm just trying, just trying

So I heard you are my sister's friend 
You get along quite nicely
You ask me why I cut my hair 
And changed myself completely


I don't know my name
I don't play by the rules of the game
So you say I'm just trying, just trying

I went from bland and popular
To joining the marching band
I made the closest friends
I'll ever have in my lifetime

I'm lost               trying to get found
    In an ocean of people
    Please don't ask me any      questions
There won't be a valid answer, I'll just say


I don't know my name
I don't play by the rules of the game
So you say I'm just trying, just trying


I don't know my name
I don't play by the rules of the game
So you say I'm not trying, but I'm trying to find my way
