Now I got rockin' chair money
But I got it the hard, hard way
I fought in every battle
From the start to the VJ day
And now I'll rock, yeah, rock
Oh baby, rock, rock on down the line
Now some folks seem to be jealous
Some don't seem to care
But I got rockin' chair money, honey
To rock on away from here
'Cause I love to rock, yeah, rock
Baby, rock, rock on down the line
I rocked away out on the ocean
I rocked from here and there
My baby stepped out while I was gone
Now she don't get my rockin' chair
'Cause I love to rock, yeah, rock
Baby, rock, rock on down the line
I'll soon get my big check, baby
And then we'll have some fun
This rockin' chair money, honey
Is better than totin' a gun
'Cause I love to rock, yeah, rock
Baby, rock, let's rock on down the line
Now honey, let's go honky-tonkin'
Let's honky-tonk all night
Let's lollygag and smooch and love
And do it all upright
'Cause I love to rock, yeah, rock
Baby, rock, let's rock on down the line
