Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Old rockin' chair got me
Cane by my side
Fetch me my gin, son
'Fore I tan your hide
[Verse 2]
Get from this cabin
I ain't goin' nowhere
I'm sittin' here grabbin'
At the flies round my rockin' chair
[Verse 3]
Remember old Aunt Harriet?
How long in heaven she'd be
Send out my chariot
For the end to my troubles, I see
[Verse 4]
Old rockin' chair got me
And Judgment Day is almost here
Chained to my old rockin' chair
[Verse 5]
Can't get from this cabin
I ain't goin' nowhere
Sittin' here grabbin'
At the flies round my rockin' chair
[Verse 6]
Remember old Aunt Harriet?
How long in heaven she'd be
Please send down my chariot
For the end of my troubles, I see
[Verse 7]
Old rockin' chair got me
Judgment Day's almost here
I'm chained to my old rockin' chair
Chained to my old rockin' chair
