I called you all together for in just an hour or two 



There'll be an auction on the square that just might int'rest you



It's the first time I've seen most of you since mama passed away



And that old chair that rocked us all will be auctioned off today



Well I guess you know of course I lost the farm that daddy sweated all his life to keep



And even worked sometimes by moonlight when all of us kids were sound to asleep



Now I guess we were all just too busy fulfilling each one's worldly dreams



To even care when they took the old chair along with all the other things



You know if you could capture all the love that we found in that old chair



Why you could wipe out all the hatred in this old world



And you'd still have a lotta love to spare



Now all I ask and it's not too much is just go with me down to the square



And let's take a look among all the other things at mama's old rocking chair



And look at all the teeth marks put there when we were small



Just go with me for one last look at the chair that rocked us all
