The Rocking Chair Millionaire

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Down in Baton Rouge Lived a man named Ray Forty-two years old At the feed store every day His hands were cracked and tired Bills stacked on the floor He said, "I work all week But I can't breathe much more" [Pre-Chorus] He'd sit on the back steps Watch the kids run by Dreaming of a way out But he never knew why Then one small light came on In a room by the hall A laptop, a cheap mic And a little trust in all [Chorus] Rocking chair millionaire Heart still rich and free Rocking chair millionaire That's who I want to be One good song at a time One more seed I plant A life that leaves a lantern In another man's hand [Verse 2] He found a home studio In a spare room off the hall Learned to cut the silence And answer every call AI helped him shape the words When his own ran dry He kept showing up each night With hope in his eyes [Pre-Chorus] No big stage, no gold chain Just a voice and a plan Posting faith on Mondays And a story on demand First it was one hundred Then a thousand, then more Every heart that found his truth Opened up a door [Chorus] Rocking chair millionaire Heart still rich and free Rocking chair millionaire That's who I want to be One good song at a time One more seed I plant A life that leaves a lantern In another man's hand [Bridge] Now his mama smiles wider When she hears him sing Says, "You gave us something That money can't bring" Not a pile of treasure Just a path somebody can A way to keep on living With a purpose in your hands [Chorus] Rocking chair millionaire Heart still rich and free Rocking chair millionaire That's who I want to be One good song at a time One more seed I plant A life that leaves a lantern In another man's hand [Outro] Comment ROCKING CHAIR... You could be the next Rocking Chair Millionaire.
