Rocking Chair Lyrics

Eric Bibb Rocking Chair

Come set on the porch, cool off in the shade
Tell me what your think of my new rockin' chair
I been workin' on it night an' day -
Ever since you walked away from here

I'm so glad to see ya, I'm in shock -
Don't say a word - Baby, just rock

The past is gone an' the future's yet to come
All we have is now -
Look in my eyes, see where I'm comin' from
I know we can work it out, somehow

Got plenty time to talk, an' take stock -
Don't say a word - Baby, just rock

Rock away, rock away - all your tears an' regrets
Rock away, rock away - forgive an' forget

The neighbours are talkin' - peepin' through the blinds
Let 'em look, I couldn't care less -
Whatever they're thinkin' or runnin' through their
minds
Ain't none of my business

Tongues will be waggin' up an' down the block -
Don't say a word - Baby just rock

Listen, blues is a woman walkin' out the door
Believin' she'll never return -
The blues is a teacher an' life is a school
All we can do is live an' learn

I knew it was your when I heard your knock -
Don't say a word - Baby just rock

Rock away, rock away - Baby, just rock
Rock away, rock away - Baby, just rock
