Eric Bibb - Rocking Chair lyrics

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
