Intro: When you wake up in the mornin' And you wonder why no one's beside you where I usually lay, And you think you hear the sound of distant thunder, Well, that's just your old rock (just your old rock) a-rollin' away I was a rock standing strong for you. Oh, there was nothing that I wouldn't do. No matter the cost, I was ready to pay. Now you say I'm only holdin' you down Like some old rock you've been draggin' around. Yes, I'm your rock (just your old rock), but now I'm rollin' away. I'm rollin' away on a downhill grade, But I'm gonna come to rest 'side a mountain of love some day. 'Cause I finally understand, if you're resting on shifting sands, Well, even a rock (even a rock) will go a-rollin' away. I was a rock standing strong for you. No, there was nothing that I wouldn't do. No matter the cost, I was ready to pay. Now you say I'm only holdin' you down Like some old rock you've been draggin' around. Yes, I was your rock (just your old rock), but now I'm rollin' away. Honey, I was your rock (just your old rock), now I'm rollin' away.
