Rocking Chair Blues

Lyrics

Did you ever wake up
 With sorrow all on your mind?
 Did you ever wake up
 With sorrow all on your mind?
 He plays the blues to his congregation
 Hear his trombone whine
 ♪
 He'll make you laugh, he'll make you cry
 He'll sit right down and moan
 He'll weep and moan
 Till I hear him say
 ♪
 Lord, I wonder where my
 Loving man is gone
 Easy rider, you see, I'm going away
 I won't be back until you change your ways
 ♪
 I won't be back until you change your ways
 I'm going to the river
 Carryin' a brand new rocking chair
 I'm going to the river
 Carryin' a brand new rocking chair
 ♪
 I'm gonna ask Mister Tadpole
 To move all his stuff from here
 ♪
 Blues jumped a rabbit
 Run him for a solid mile
 Blues jumped a rabbit
 Run him for a solid mile
 The rabbit turned over
 And cried like a natural cry
