Lyrics
Rocking Chair
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I'm gonna buy myself a rockin' chair
Try to rock away my blues
I'm gonna buy myself a rockin' chair
Try to rock away my blues
'Cause my friend came home this morning
And he brought me bad news
He said, "your best girl just passed me
With the suitcase in her hand"
He said, "your best girl just passed me
With the suitcase in her hand"
And she wasn't out alone
She was with another man
Please, baby, please come home
Please, baby, please come home
Please don't leave me alone
Until she comes back
I'm gonna rock in my rockin' chair
Until she comes back
I'm gonna rock in my rockin' chair
'Cause without my baby
I just can't get nowhere
