Rocking Chair Lyrics
[Verse]
Rocking myself to sleep
In this rocking chair
It's easy to fall asleep
In the cool night air
It's been a hard day, a hard day
A little work at a little place
[Verse]
Rocking myself to sleep
In this rocking chair
Tryin' to count the sheep
In this cool night air
It's been a long time, a long time
I haven't had much peace of mind
[Bridge]
Maybe I'll run away
Find myself a new life
I should have gone today
But I'd hate to leave my wife
[Guitar solo]
[Verse]
Rocking myself to sleep
In this rocking chair
Thinkin' about my lady
Such a sad affair
She's in an institution in a bad way
She tried to shoot me with a knife today
Rocking myself to sleep
In this rocking chair
It's easy to fall asleep
In the cool night air
It's been a hard day, a hard day
A little work at a little place
[Verse]
Rocking myself to sleep
In this rocking chair
Tryin' to count the sheep
In this cool night air
It's been a long time, a long time
I haven't had much peace of mind
[Bridge]
Maybe I'll run away
Find myself a new life
I should have gone today
But I'd hate to leave my wife
[Guitar solo]
[Verse]
Rocking myself to sleep
In this rocking chair
Thinkin' about my lady
Such a sad affair
She's in an institution in a bad way
She tried to shoot me with a knife today
