Old rockin' chair's got me, my cane by my side
|
Fetch me that gin, son, 'fore I tan your hide
|
Can't get from this cabin, goin' nowhere
|
Just set me here grabbin' at the flies round this rockin' chair
|
|
My dear old aunt Harriet, in Heaven she be
|
Send me sweet chariot, for the end of the trouble I see
|
Old rockin' chair gets it, Judgement Day is here
|
Chained to my rockin' chair
|
|
Old rockin' chair's got me, son, (Rocking chair got you, father)
|
My cane by my side, (Yes, your cane by your side)
|
Now fetch me a little gin, son (Ain't got no gin, father)
|
What? 'fore I tan your hide, now, (You're gonna tan my hide)
|
|
You know, I can't get from this old cabin (What cabin? joking)
|
I ain't goin' nowhere (Why ain't you goin' nowhere?)
|
Just sittin' me here grabbin' (Grabbin')
|
At the flies round this old rockin' chair (Rockin' chair)
|
|
Now you remember dear old aunt Harriet, (Aunt Harriet)
|
How long in Heaven she be? (She's up in Heaven)
|
Send me down, send me down sweet (Sweet chariot) chariot
|
End of this trouble I see (I see, Daddy)
|
|
Old rockin' chair gets it, son (Rocking chair get it, father)
|
Judgement Day is here, too (Your Judgement Day is here)
|
Chained to my rockin', old rockin' chair
