Blue Rocking Chair Lyrics by Grasstowne

Kickin’ Up Dust

2011

[Verse 1]
In Lousiana lowlands, in the fields of sugar cane
Stands an old abandoned cabin with a blue rocking chair
It's stained with milk and whiskey, it tells a family history
Of the joy and the misery in that blue rocking chair
[Chorus]
And it rocks, my children are gone
All my dear children are gone
[Verse 2]
It was made of oak and maple, from the Blue Delta Stable
He rocked to the music every Saturday night
For six generations, all the kin and relations
'Til the water rose around them, and they left it all behind
[Chorus]
And it rocks, my children are gone
All my dear children are gone
[Verse 3]
I can still hear the knocking of that blue chair a-rocking
And the old folks a-talkin' of the trouble they shared
The rhythm of the cryin', the laughin' and lyin'
All the living and dying in that blue rocking chair
[Chorus]
And it rocks, my children are gone
All my dear children are gone
And it rocks, my children are gone
All my dear children are gone
