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...

Rock Me Back To Little Rock
