Rocking chair

I hand this one over to the Great Eric Bibb



Come set on the porch, cool off in the shade
Tell me what you think of my new rockin' chair
I've been workin' on it night and 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 and 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, and take stock
Don't say a word
Baby, just rock
Rock away, rock away
All your tears and regrets
Rock away, rock away
Forgive and forget
The neighbors 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 and 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 and life is a school
All we can do is live and learn
I knew it was you 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
