In grandma’s rockingchair
I love to be 
and when she strokes my hair 
sche’s dreaming with me 
of times which long have gone 
rocking to rocking fro
my dear old granny 
I do love you so 
my dear old granny 
I do love you so 

In grandma’s rockingchair 
are tales for me 
when I am sitting there 
there up on her knee
sche tells me what my pa 
as a boy once did do 
my dear old granny 
now I’ll care for you 
my dear old granny 
now I’ll care for you 

In grandma’s rockingchair 
my fears are small 
I listen still to her 
when night shadows fall 
she tells me that my pa 
such a good boy was too 
my dear old granny 
now I’ll care for you 
my dear old granny 
how I do love you
