Rockin' Alone In An Old Rockin' Chair

Rockin' Alone In An Old Rockin' Chair

(album: Songs Of The Home And Heart - 1956)

I saw an old mother with silvery hair
Rocking alone in her old rocking chair
She looked so neglected by those that should care
Rocking alone in that old rocking chair

Her hands all calloused wrinkled and old
A life of hard work is the story they told
And I've thought of angels as I saw her there
Rocking alone in her old rocking chair

I know of some kids in an orphanage home
Who think they owned heaven if she was their own
They'd never be willing to let her sit there
Rocking alone in that old rocking chair

Bless her old heart do you think she'd complain
Though life has been bitter she'd live it again
And carry her burden much more than her share
Rocking alone in her old rocking chair
