Rock away my troubles, rock away my cares
Oh, I found peace and comfort in that easy rockin' chair
I feel just as wealthy as a millionaire
When I get back to Dixie in that easy rockin' chair.


Everyone, your neighbors welcome on the mare
Just sittin', doin' nothin' and not too much of they're
Thumbin' through the good book, thinkin' of a prayer
I rock my way to heaven in that easy rockin' chair.


Rockin' free and easy, times are passin' by
And readin' the evenin' paper till I swat this pesty fly
There I go a dozin', guess it's in the air
I gotta do some dreamin' in that easy rockin' chair.


Rock away my troubles, rock away my cares
Oh, I found peace and comfort in that easy rockin' chair
I feel just as wealthy as a millionaire
When I get back to Dixie in that easy rockin' chair...
