Rockin’ Chair (1947) lyrics

Old rockin' chair's got me
Cane by my side
Fetch me that gin, son
'Fore I tan your hide

I can't get from this cabin
I ain't go nowhere
I just set me here grabbin'
At the flies 'round this rockin' chair

My dear old Aunt Harriet
How long in Heaven you be?
Send me sweet chariot
For the end of these troubles I see

Old rockin' chair, he get it, he get it
Judgment Day's share[?]
Chained to my rocking chair

Chained to my old rocking chair
