Rockin' Chair Lyrics


I'm older than I wish to be
This town holds no more for me
All my life, I try to find another way
I don't care for your attitude
You bring me down, I think you're rude
All my life, I try to make a better dayIt's hard enough being alone
Sitting here by the phone
Waiting for my memories
To come and play
It's hard enough sitting there
Rockin' in your rockin' chair
It's all too much for me to take
When you're not thereIt's hard enough being alone
Sitting here by the phone
Waiting for my memories
To come and play
It's hard enough sitting there
Rockin' in your rockin' chair

It's all too much for me to take
When you're not thereI'm older than I wish to be
This town holds no more for me
All my life, I try to find another way
I don't care for your attitude
You bring me down, I think you're rude
All my life, I try to make a better dayIt's hard enough being alone
Sitting here by the phone
Waiting for my memories
To come and play
It's hard enough sitting there
Rockin' in your rockin' chair
It's all too much for me to take
When you're not there

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Alan George Heywood Melly (17 August 1926 – 5 July 2007) was an English jazz and blues singer and writer. From 1965–1973 he was a film and television critic for The Observer. He also lectured on art history, with an emphasis on Surrealism. His singing style, particularly for the blues, was strongly influenced by his idol, the American Blues singer Bessie Smith. While many British musicians of the time treated jazz and blues with almost religious solemnity, Melly rejoiced in their more bawdy side, and this was reflected in his choice of songs and exuberant stage performances.
