"Grandpas Chair"

Now every grandpa needs a chair
To rock his babies in
And to and fro he’ll go with them
Til sleepy times begin
So rock your babies William dear
And hold them close to you
They’ll remember how it felt
When grandpa rocked them too
So to and fro you’ll go again
With creaky groaning chair
For of the creaks and groans you’ll find
Your babies are aware
Such soothing sounds they’ve come to love
Without a single word
For grandpa rocks them to and fro
When creaks and groans are heard
