I'm gonna buy myself a rockin' chair Try to rock away my blues I'm gonna buy myself a rockin' chair Try to rock away my blues Cause my friend get home this mornin' And he brought me bad news He said your bad gal just pass me With a suitcase in her hand He said your bad gal just pass me With a suitcase in her hand And she wasn't out alone She was with another man Please Baby please come home Please Baby please come home Please don't leave me alone Until she come back I'm gonna rock in my rockin' chair Until she come back I'm gonna rock in my rockin' chair Cause without my baby I just can't get nowhere
