Jan Howard - Rock Me Back To Little Rock lyrics

I was young when I left you and daddy there was a world outside I had to see

Mama I've sure been a lot of places but Little Rock still looks the best to me

Oh rock me back to Little Rock mama rock me let me be there in my dreams awhile

Where the men don't try to take advantage of every woman who smiles

Sing me a little rock-a-bye-baby just the way you used to do

Mama this old world ouside does hurt me so rock me back to Little Rock with you

[ guitar ]

I couldn't wait to get away from Little Rock

For I thought Little Rock was a little square

But if I ever save enough money I'll swing it right on back and settle there

Oh rock me back to Little Rock...
