Roll a Rock Down
Out in the West where the riders are ready
They sing an old song and they tell an old tale
Its moral is plain：Take it easy, go steady
While riding a horse on the Malibu Trail
It's a high, rocky trail with its switch-backs and doubles
It has no beginning and never an end
It's risky and rough and it's plumb full of troubles
From Shifty -- that's shale -- up to Powder Cut Bend
Old-timers will tell you the rangers who made it
Sang 'Roll A Rock Down,' with a stiff upper lip
And cussed all creation, but managed to grade it
With a thousand-foot drop if a pony should slip
Oh, the day it was wet and the sky it was cloudy
The trail was as slick as any oil-rigger's pants
When Ranger McCabe on his pony, Old Rowdy
Came ridin' where walkin' was takin' a chance
Roll a rock down, roll a rock down
Go easy and steady and roll a rock down
Roll a rock down, roll a rock down
When life throws you curves, you can roll a rock down
Roll a rock down, roll a rock down
Go easy and steady and roll a rock down
Roll a rock down, roll a rock down
When life throws you curves, you can roll a rock down
'Oh, Roll A Rock Down!' picks and shovels was clangin'
And Rowdy a-steppin' that careful and light
When the edge it gave way and McCabe was left hangin'
Clean over the rim--with no bottom in sight
I shook out a loop--bein' crowded for throwin'
I flipped a fair noose for a rope that was wet
It caught just as Mac lost his holt and was goin'
And burned through my fingers: it's burnin' them yet
For Ranger McCabe never knuckled to danger
My partner in camp, on the trail, or in town

And he slid into glory, a true forest ranger
With Hell! I'm a-goin'! Just roll a rock down
So, roll a rock down where a ranger is sleepin'
Aside of his horse below Powder Cut Bend
I ride and I look where the shadows are creepin'
And roll a rock down--for McCabe was my friend
Roll a rock down, roll a rock down
Go easy and steady and roll a rock down
Roll a rock down, roll a rock down
When life throws you curves, you can roll a rock down
Roll a rock down, roll a rock down
Go easy and steady and roll a rock down
Roll a rock down, roll a rock down
When life throws you curves, you can roll a rock down
I've sung you a song and I've told you my story
And all that I ask when I'm done with the show
I'll roll a rock down when I slide into glory
And say that I went like a ranger should go
Out in the West where the riders are ready
They sing an old song and they tell an old tale
Its moral is plain: Take it easy, go steady
While riding a horse on the Malibu Trail
Roll a rock down, roll a rock down
Go easy and steady and roll a rock down
Roll a rock down, roll a rock down
When life throws you curves, you can roll a rock down
Roll a rock down, roll a rock down
Go easy and steady and roll a rock down
Roll a rock down, roll a rock down
When life throws you curves, you can roll a rock down
When life throws you curves, you can roll a rock down
When life throws you curves, you can roll a rock down
