I'm gonna buy myself a rockin' chair   Try to rock away my blues   I'm gonna buy myself a rockin' chair   Try to rock away my blues      'Cause my friend came home this morning   And he brought me bad news      He said, "Your best girl just passed me   With the suitcase in her hand"   He said, "Your best girl just passed me   With the suitcase in her hand"      And she wasn't out alone   She was with another man      Please, baby, please come home   Please, baby, please come home   Please don't leave me alone      Until she comes back   I'm gonna rock in my rockin' chair   Until she comes back   I'm gonna rock in my rockin' chair      'Cause without my baby   I just can't get nowhere
