[Chorus]
G C
I don't need your rocking chair
G
Your Geritol or your Medicare
D7
Cause I still got neon in my veins
G
This gray hair don't mean a thing
C
I do my rocking on the stage
G
You can't put this possum in a cage
D7
My body's old but it ain't impaired
G
I don't need your rocking chair
C
I ain't ready for the junkyard yet
G
Cause I still feel like a new Corvette
D7
It may take a little longer but I'll get there
G
Well I don't need your rocking chair
[Chorus]
G C
I don't need your rocking chair
G
Your Geritol or your Medicare
D7
Cause I still got neon in my veins
G
This gray hair don't mean a thing
C
I do my rocking on the stage
G
You can't put this possum in a cage
D7
My body's old but it ain't impaired
G
I don't need your rocking chair
[Instrumental]
C
Retirement don't fit in my plans
G
You can keep your seat I'm a gonna stand
D7
An Eskimo needs a Frigidaire
G
Like I need your rocking chair
[Outro]
D7
My body's old but it ain't impaired
G
I don't need your rocking chair
