Lyrics

Baby i know you work real hard
Forty hours every week
Then you come home and clean the house
Dont know how you find the time for me

But then I that come on look
You know it drives me plum insane
to see that crazy side of you
you know just what you do
love when you roll that way

Chorus
When you let your hair fall down
And you put your cares aside
When you come all unwound
I cant deny , makes me glad you're mine

When we go out on friday night
and you put on that little dress
shows the way that God made you
it aint fair I must confess

Because the other guys '
wish that they were in my place
You put on your little show
Wink at them before we go
love it when you roll that way

Chorus

And after we turn out the lights
You tell me its getting late
Just when I think that you're too tired
You find a way to light that fire
Love when you roll that way

Tag
Its almost more then I can stand
I know I'm a lucky man
love it when you roll that way
