Now I got rockin' chair money
But I got it the hard, hard way
I fought in every battle
From the start to the VJ day
And now I'll rock...yeah rock...
Oh baby rock...rock on down the line
Now some folks seem to be jealous
Some don't seem to care
But I got rockin' chair money, honey
To rock on away from here
Cause I love to rock...yeah rock...
Baby, rock, rock on down the line
I rocked away out on the ocean
I rocked from here and there
My baby stepped out while I was gone
Now she don't get my rockin' chair
Cause I love to rock, yeah rock
Baby, rock, rock on down the line
I'll soon get my big check, baby
And then we'll have some fun
This rockin' chair money, honey
Is better than totin' a gun
Cause I love to rock, yeah rock
Baby, rock, let's rock on down the line
Now, honey, let's go honky tonkin'
Let's honky tonk all night
Let's lollygag and smooch and love
and do it all up right
Cause I love to rock, yeah rock
Baby, rock, let's rock on down the line
