Tick Tockin' Of The Rockin' Chair
Lyrics
Tick Tockin’ of the Rockin’ Chair

I was a tumble weed lost in a thunder storm
Till I drifted back to my Grandma’s farm
I worked while Grandma passed the days away
In the cool relief of the front porch shade
In a rockin' chair that granddad made
How she loved to rock and sway....the

Tick tockin' of the rockin' chair
Making music just sittin’ there
Her worries seem to disappear
Tick tock, the tick tockin' of the rockin' chair

She was fading fast as her November passed,
And I knew winter could be Grandma’s last
I sang her songs by the firelight
Just the way she did when I was a child
When she’d sing me soothin’ lullabies
How we loved to rock all night.....the

Tick tockin' of the rockin' chair
Making music just sittin’ there
Our worries seem to disappear
Tick tock, the tick tockin' of the rockin' chair

Well Grandma left that rocker for me
And all the love of a family
Now every night we rock in my dreams, my dreams

Tick tockin' of the rockin' chair
Making music just sittin’ there
My worries seem to disappear
Tick tock, tick tock
Tick tock, tick tockin' of the rockin' chair

Tick tockin' of the rockin' chair
Life’s worries seem to disappear
Tick tockin' of the rockin chair
Tick tock, tick tockin' of the rockin chair
Tick tock, tick tockin' of the rockin chair
