For those who like uncovering drug references in Beatles songs, I've read that "roll up" as used in this song, refers to rolling up a joint - as well as its more innocent meaning of come closer, come in as used by a carnival barker. Believe it or not.

This whole cd is a trippy ass psychedelic TOUR/ride.
This song is inviting you to listen/ get high.
LSD!!! so much stuff you can only hear while tripping, lsd is like a microscope for their songs! -truth.

Perhaps it's referring to their ill-fated movie of the same name, or inviting people to come on a tour? The Beatles undoubtedly used a lot of drugs, but most of their songs didn't have drug references.

"Roll up" is a reference to rolling up one's sleeve to take an injection of a hard drug.

Knock it off with the drugs! Unbelievable! It's just a good song, maybe about a fair or show or something innocent as that! Sheesh!

I hate it when people say it's about "rolling a joint" or "rolling up their sleeves to take a hard drug" no they were on a tour one of their VERY first tours and they sold tickets at music store. So in interpretation roll-up just means to roll-up and pick someone up
