Rockin' Chair Money

(album: The Complete Hank Williams - 1998)

Now I got rocking chair money
But I got it the hard, hard way
I fought in every battle
From the start to the VJ day
And now I'll rock...yeah rock...
Oh baby rock...rock on down the line

Now some folks seem to be jealous
Some don't seem to care
But I got rocking chair money, honey
To rock on away from here
Cause I love to rock...yeah rock...
Baby, rock, rock on down the line

I rocked away out on the ocean
I rocked from here and there
My baby stepped out while I was gone
Now she don't get my rocking chair
Cause I love to rock, yeah rock
Baby, rock, rock on down the line

I'll soon get my big check, baby
And then we'll have some fun
This rocking chair money, honey
Is better than toting a gun
Cause I love to rock, yeah rock
Baby, rock, let's rock on down the line

Now, honey, let's go honky tonking
Let's honky tonk all night
Let's lollygag and smooch and love
and do it all up right
Cause I love to rock, yeah rock
Baby, rock, let's rock on down the line
