Headin down south to the land of the pines
Thumbin my way down to north carolina
Starrin up the road praying that i see headlights
Made it down the coast in 17 hours
Pickin me a bouquet of dogwood flowers
And im hopin to raleigh that i can see my baby tonight
So rock me mama like a wagon wheel
Rock me mama any way you feel
Now, hey mama rock me.
Rock me mama like the wind and the rain
Rock me mama like a south bound train
Hey, mama rock me.
Ive been running from the cold
Up in new england
I was born to be a fiddler and an old time string man
My baby plays the guitar, i play the banjo and now, yeah
Well the north country winters
Keep getting me down
I lost my money playing poker
I had to up and leave.
I turnin back and livin that old life no more.
So rock me mama like a wagon wheel
Rock me mama any way you feel
Now, hey mama rock me.
Rock me mama like the wind and the rain
Rock me mama like a south bound train
Hey, mama rock me.
Go ahead.
Ive been walkin due south out of roanoke
I met a trucker out of phillie, had a nice long toke
Hes heading west to the cumberland gap
To johnson city, tennessee
I got to get a move on quick from the sun
I hear my baby calling my name and i know she is the only one
And if i die in raleigh at least i know i will die free
So rock me mama like a wagon wheel
Rock me mama any way you feel
Now, hey mama rock me.
Rock me mama like the wind and the rain
Rock me mama like a south bound train
Hey, mama rock me.
So rock me mama like a wagon wheel
Rock me mama any way you feel
Now, hey mama rock me.
Rock me mama like the wind and the rain
Rock me mama like a south bound train
Hey, mama rock me.
Hey, mama rock me, yeahhhh.
