I've got no use for a red rockin' chair
Got no Honey Baby now, Lawd, Lawd
Got not sugar baby now
Who'll rock the cradle, who'll sing the song
Who'll rock the cradle when I'm gone, Lawd, Lawd
Who'll rock the cradle when I'm gone
Now ah'll rock the cradle ah'll sing the song
Ah'll rock the cradle when you're gone, Lawd, Lawd
Ah'll rock the cradle when you're gone
It's all I can do, it's all I can say
I can't get along this away, Lawd, Lawd
I can't get along this away
It's all I can do, it's all I can say
I'll sing it to yo' mama next pay day, Lawd, Lawd
I'll sing it to yo' mama next pay day
Who'll rock the cradle, who'll sing the song
Who'll rock the cradle when I'm gone, Lawd, Lawd
Who'll rock the cradle when I'm gone
