Rockin' Chair Money Lyrics

Now I got rockin' chair money
But I got it the hard, hard way
I fought in every battle
From the start to the VJ day
And now I'll rock...yeah rock...
Oh baby rock...rock on down the line

Now some folks seem to be jealous
Some don't seem to care
But I got rockin' chair money, honey
To rock on away from here
Cause I love to rock...yeah rock...
Baby, rock, rock on down the line

I rocked away out on the ocean
I rocked from here and there
My baby stepped out while I was gone
Now she don't get my rockin' chair
Cause I love to rock, yeah rock
Baby, rock, rock on down the line

I'll soon get my big check, baby
And then we'll have some fun
This rockin' chair money, honey
Is better than totin' a gun
Cause I love to rock, yeah rock
Baby, rock, let's rock on down the line

Now, honey, let's go honky tonkin'
Let's honky tonk all night
Let's lollygag and smooch and love
and do it all up right
Cause I love to rock, yeah rock
Baby, rock, let's rock on down the line

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
