GRANDDADDY'S ROCKING
(Blake - Blake)
MAC CURTIS (King 4949, 1956)

My granddaddy's got long white hair
But I'll tell you now that he ain't no square
But he sits and rocks, rocks in his rocking chair
Well my granddaddy's rocking in his rocking chair
Well granddaddy's rocking in his rocking chair
Granddaddy's rocking 'cause he ain't no square
Gotta sit down and rock, but he don't care
Granddaddy's rocking in his rocking chair
Well I said, rock-rock-rock-rock-rock granddaddy
Rock-rock-rock in your rocking chair
He's a-rocking out a rhythm that 'll scare you square
Granddaddy's rocking in his rocking chair

Had a rock and roll party, the other night
The place was jumpin' and the cats alright
And they heard a crazy sound from the other room
When they saw granddaddy this is what the cats all grum
Well granddaddy's rocking in his rocking chair
Granddaddy's rocking 'cause he ain't no square
Gotta sit down and rock, but he don't care
Granddaddy's rocking in his rocking chair
