Lyrics

One day when I grow old, wrinkled and gray
You'll be talk'in to me and I'll forget everything you say
I'll be sitt'in on the front porch play'in rock'n roll all day

No I'm not gonna cry over a little white hair
I'll watch the girls go by sitt'in in my rock'in chair
Maybe I'll get high I won't have even a care
I'll just keep on rock'in… In my rock'in chair

And when the nurse is calling me to take my medication, please
I'll say I need a little help baby come and sit here on my knee
I'll do anything you want but please don't take my MTV

No I'm not gonna cry over a little lost hair
I'll watch the girls go by sitt'in in my rock'in chair
Maybe I'll get high I won't have even a care
I'll just keep on rock'in… In my rock'in chair

You might think I'm crazy, ever since I was a baby
I was rock'in in the cradle all day
Now I don't wanna stop, I'm gonna rock until I drop
Gotta pick up my guitar and play... ( Hey! ) SOLO
They say that youth is wasted on the young, well I don't know

I think it's just a state of mind and what a way to go
While this heart keeps tick'in I'll still have wild oats to sow

No I'm not gonna cry over a little white hair
I'll watch the girls go by sitt'in in my rock'in chair
Maybe I'll get high I won't have even a care
I'll just keep on rock'in… In my rock'in chair
