Mildred Bailey Rockin' Chair

Old rockin' chair's got me
Cane by my side

Fetch me that gin, son
'Fore I tan your hide

Can't get from this cabin
Ain't goin' nowhere

Just sittin' me here grabbin'
At the flies 'round my rockin' chair

My dear old Aunt Harriet
How long in Heaven she be?

Send me a sweet chariot
For the end of these trouble I see

Old rockin' chair gets it
Judgment Day is here

Chained to my old
Rockin' chair

Old rockin' chair's got me
Cane by my side

Fetch me that gin, son
'Fore I tan your hide

Can't get from this cabin
Ain't goin' nowhere

Just sittin' me here grabbin'
At the flies 'round my rockin' chair

My dear old Aunt Harriet
How long in Heaven she be?

Send me a sweet chariot
For the end of these trouble I see

Old rockin' chair gets it
Judgment Day is here

Chained to my
Rockin' chair
