I get a -way to Lit -tle Rock when -ev -er I'm blue And from my lit -tle rock -ing chair I take in the view
The breez -es rock me to the Lit -tle Rock Get Get -a -way
There's al -ways some -one drop -ping by to lean on the gate I look at those fa -mil -iar fac -es and I feel great
The town is hum -ming to the Lit -tle Rock Get Get -a -way.
Folks can run to New York or out to Ch -ca -go I'll join the small -town flock
And I'll have me a time A big time in Lit -tle Rock It's just a stone's throw from Heav -en
It's got a lot of ev -'ry -thing from A up to Z A sun a moon a pret -ty tune a sweet -ie for me
My heart will al -ways sing the Lit -tle Rock Get Get -a -way.
