A.k.a. George - Rockin' Chair Lyrics

Sweet sister hold me, roll me in your arms
Don't you let the bad men take me
Don't you let them do me harm

REFRAIN: Stay down, way down, lay down
I'm gonna sit in my rockin' chair, yeah,
Sit in my rockin' chair

Brother please don't leave me, keep me here today
Give me shelter from the night
Don't you let me run away

REFRAIN

Mama tried to warn me, when I was quite young
Don't you let the fire burn you
Don't you listen to the devil's tongue

REFRAIN

Dear Lord have mercy when you judge my soul
Stop me from falling down
Won't you leave my spirit whole

REFRAIN
