[Verse 1]
[Dolly Parton]
I'll do everything I can to make you proud to be my man
[Ricky Van Shelton]
And I'll fulfill all your fantasies
[Dolly Parton]
I guess we're promising a lot, but for now it's all we've got
[Ricky Van Shelton]
And I'll stand by you through our rocking years
[Chorus]
[Both]
Rocking chairs, rocking babies, rock-a-bye, rock of ages
Side by side we'll be together always
[Dolly Parton]
And if you'll hold me tight when you love me
That's all I'll ask of you
[Both]
And I'll stand by you through our rocking years
[Verse 2]
[Ricky Van Shelton]
I'll be your friend, I'll be your lover
Until the end, there'll be no other
[Dolly Parton]
And my heart has only room for one
[Ricky Van Shelton]
Yes, I'll always love you
[Dolly Parton]
And I'll always be here for you
[Both]
And I'll stand by you through our rocking years
[Chorus]
[Both]
Rocking chairs, rocking babies, rock-a-bye, rock of ages
Side by side, we'll be together always
[Ricky Van Shelton]
And if you'll hold me tight when you love me
That's all I'll ask of you
[Both]
And I'll stand by you through our rocking years
[Chorus]
[Both]
Rocking chairs, rocking babies, rock-a-bye, rock of ages
Side by side, we'll be together always
[Dolly Parton]
And yes I'll always love you
[Ricky Van Shelton]
And I'll always be here for you
[Dolly Parton]
And I'll stand by you through our rocking years, yes I'll be here
[Both]
And I'll stand by you, through our rocking years
[Outro]
[Both]
Through our rocking years
