Well I brought my rockin' chair, put it in my back yard
My baby went away and left me, and that ain't all
She left me reelin' and a-rocking, talking all out my head
She left me reelin' and a-rocking, talking all out my head
Well and I feel so bad, I wish that I was dead
That's why I'm gonna go away, won't be back till fall
If I find me a good little girl, I won't come back at all
I won't be reeling and a-rocking, talking all out my head
I won't be reeling and a-rocking, talking all out my head
And I'll be feeling so glad, I'll never wish I was dead
