Don't want no rocking-chair regrets I got that fire and it's burning in my chest Gonna keep on living 'til I hear the last call And I, I, I want it all Babe, I'll put my heart on the line Been a-sittin' 'round a coward, broken all that I can break Cried

In my solitude I sit in my chair With gloom everywhere I sit and I stare I know that I'll soon go mad Dear Lord above Send back my love You haunt me

In my solitude I sit in my chair With gloom everywhere I sit and I stare I know that I'll soon go mad Dear Lord above Send back my love You haunt me

In my solitude you haunt me With reveries of days gone by In my solitude you taunt me With memories that never die I sit in my chair I'm filled with despair There's no one could be so sad With gloom everywhere I sit and I stare

I want to get next to you Sittin' here in this chair waitin' on you Oh, baby, to see things my way But not a word do you say You won't even look my way Girl I'm spendin' my dimes, wastin' my time Talkin' till I'm black and blue Uh, can't you see Dreams

Who's that loungin' in my chair? Who's that castin' devious stares in my direction? Mama, this surely is a dream, yeah And I smell sex and candy here Hanging 'round downtown by myself And I've had so much time to sit and think about myself And there she

In my solitude I sit in my chair With gloom everywhere I sit and I stare I know that I'll soon go mad Dear Lord above You haunt me With dreadful ease

Gotta get him out my hair 'Cause he was just a dick and I knew it Got me going mad sitting in this chair Like I don't care I tried everything but it's useless He pushed me so far now I'm on the edge Make him disappear Go get him out my hair Switch it up

Oh I like you too and to tell you the truth That wasn't my chair after all. Well excuse me, but I think you've got my chair, No that one's not taken, I don't mind if you sit here, I'll be glad to share. Yea it's usually, packed here on Friday nights, Oh

I make you smile I make you proud I may not be there now But I hope one day I'll be man enough to be sitting there in my granddaddy's chair I hope one day I'll be the man you used to be Quick to love and slow to anger No, you never met a stranger I hope
