Robert Johnson adapted "Rollin' and Tumblin'" with the title "If I Had Possession Over Judgment Day" during his third recording session in San Antonio, Texas, in 1936. Musically, his version is based on the original, but added new lyrics. The song was not released until 1961, when it was included on the first Johnson compilation album, King of the Delta Blues Singers.
