Little Rocking Chair Songtext

von Lonnie Johnson

Well, I'm goin' down to the river, take along my little rockin' chair.
Well, I'm goin' down to the river, take along my little rockin' chair.
Well, if I can't find my lover, guess I'll rock on 'way from here.

Yes, I'm so tired of being disappointed, I'm so tired of being all alone.
Yes, I'm so tired of being disappointed, I'm so tired of being all alone.
Yes, I'm so tired of layin' down at night, worryin' ‘bout where my baby's gone.

Sometimes when the sun is risin' in the mornin', still walkin' up and down my floor.
Sometimes when the sun is risin' in the mornin', still walkin' up and down my floor.
My two pillows so covered with tears, that I can't rest in my bed no more.

Yes, I been drinkin' to keep from thinkin', I been smilin' when my heart is cryin'.
Yes, I been drinkin' to keep from thinkin', smilin' when my heart is cryin'.
Yes, I've been tryin' my best, to find a little peace for this worried mind.
