Song Lyrics
Roll the acrobats just roll

Roll until tomorrow

They will roll away your pain

They can roll away your sorrow

For strength, vitality,

They will roll until tomorrow

What a spectacle to see

As they roll until tomorrow

They're rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling

And rolling all over the floor

They're rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling

Amazing they never get sore

(Instrumental break)

May I take a moment of your time?

The mighty acrobats keep rolling

They roll while the great bells chime

They roll to heaven's calling

Ah, they're rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling

And rolling all over the floor

They're rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling

Amazing they never get sore

Outside the rain, they fall

Hear the sound of thunder rumbling

The wind blows trees so tall

The acrobats keep tumbling

Ah, they're rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling

And rolling and rolling again

They're rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling

And rolling and rolling and then

There's more rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling

And rolling all over the floor

They're rolling and and rolling and rolling

Amazing they never get sore
