Rockin' Alone (In an Old Rocking Chair)

Sitting alone in an old rocking chair
I saw an old mother with silvery hair
She seemed so neglected by those
Who should care
Rocking alone in an old rocking chair
It wouldn't take much
Just to gladden her heart
Just some small remembrance
On somebody's part
A letter would brighten
Her only life there
Rocking alone in an old rocking chair
I know some youngsters
In an orphans' home
Who'd think they owned heaven
If she was their own
They'd never be willing
To let her sit there
Rocking alone in an old rocking chair
I look at her and I think it a shame
The ones who forgot her
She loves just the same
And I think of angels as I see her there
Rocking alone in an old rocking chair
