The song "Rockin' Chair", by Joyce, mentioning the Carmichael version prompted me to locate and share the chair. As, I like Hoagy's music. So, I've Q'd a short version.
Old rocking chair's got me, got my cane by my side,
Fetch me that gin, son, a 'fore I tan your hide.
I can't get from this cabin, goin' nowhere
I Just set me here grabbin' at the flies round this rocking chair
My dear old aunt Harriet, how long in Heaven you be,
Send me sweet chariot, for the end of the this trouble I see
Old rocking chair he git it, he git it, judgement day is here
Chained to my rocking chair.
Instrumental - Whistle
Chained to my ol' rockin' chair.

Jerry: @qwirky I bet you REALLY like Cracker Barrel Restaurants with all those rocking chairs out front...do they have to ask you to leave? A rock'n chair is so comfortable. You are so skinny, I can't even see you in that rock'n chair...It's always my pleasure Rich....

@qwirky Hiya Q! I can sure relate to these lyrics, but wouldn't know whether I was coming or going in that chair. Your songs are always the highlight of my day Rich!

@cash No chains, it's age and physical that has the chair holding me in. Thank you Cash. Not everybody can handle being lazy. Welcome to my club.

@jerry I do, Wilder has a picture, setting in a Cracker Barrel chair. But, this wasn't about him. He's a young bear and has lots to bear as he gets older. I was sitting sideways, if I had been facing the camera, you would not see the chair. Thanks Jerry.
