Bill Payne, Lowell George

Don't it always seem to hit you
Rght when you think you can lay back easy
Those times are hard to come by
Sittin' still with nothin' on your mind

Memories are friends that you had
It's so clear if you need to see
I can count on you, you can count
You can count on me

Those clouds outside your doorway
Don't seem so dark or move so fast

If you keep on rocking long as it keeps raining
Back and forth on your porch
Just keep on rocking, keep on rocking

If I could only tell you what I feel now
It's been so long inside of me
All the years that I've been trying
To stay in touch, to stay in line
Trying just to be myself, be myself
And no one else

Front page right through to back page
Have I got news for you

You know the story; it's the truth; love's the proof

If you keep on rocking long as it keeps raining
Back and forth on your porch
Just keep on rocking; keep on rocking
Have I got news for you
Front page, back page
Have I got news for you
Front page, back page
Have I got news for you
