MARTY STUART & LEROY TROY - Roll On Buddy, Roll On
“Roll On Buddy" is considered a bluegrass standard as recorded by Bill Monroe and the Bluegrass Boys. On May 17, 1924 Al Hopkins & His Buckle Busters recorded “Baby Your Time Ain’t Long” with Charlie Bowman on fiddle. Four years later, Charlie Bowman & His Brothers used this exact same melody on a song they called “Roll On Buddy.” Although usually thought to be a traditional song, “Roll on Buddy” was apparently composed by Charlie Bowman for their recording on October 16, 1928. The first line of the song has consistently confused the many people who have recorded and sung it over the years. This line is usually sung as: “I’m going to that east pay road.” Researcher Bill Cox managed to get his hands on a copy of Charlie Bowman’s original handwritten lyrics to the song. What Charlie actually sang was “I’m going to that east Cairo.” Cairo referred to a town in southern Illinois at the junction of the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers.
