38 Special Lyrics

Album: A Wild-Eyed Christmas Night

That Old Rockin Chair Lyrics

** this song is dedicated to Marion Virginia VanZant (Donnie's mother). "A great songwriter once told me that all songs are little gifts from heaven. Mama, this is my gift to you. I miss you"-Donnie VanZant 

Mama, words can't express 

How I feel about you 

Especially at this Christmastime 

You went out of your way, 

Thoughtful gifts that you gave 

A love of giving, you passed on to us 

Christmastime, Lord I love you 

Sometimes life just doesn't seem fair 

Christmastime, oh I miss you 

I still see you in that old rockin' chair 

You were always there for me 

Through all of your life 

I still miss our telephone calls 

The jokes that you told 

And the laughter we shared 

Oh Lord, that's what I miss the most 

Christmastime, Lord I love you 

Sometimes life just doesn't seem fair 

Christmastime, oh I miss you 

Sittin' in that old rockin' chair 

Bridge: 

Lord, keep her safe in your arms 

Right where she belongs 

'Cause I know she's in heaven 

Mama, you're finally home 

Oh, you're finally home 

Christmastime, Lord I love you 

Sometimes life just doesn't seem fair 

Christmastime, oh I miss you 

Sittin' in that old rockin' chair 

I still see you in that old rockin' chair 

Merry Christmas 

Always know that I'm thinking of you 

Merry Christmas 

Mama, I will always love you
