Headed down south to the land of the pines, Thumbin' my way into North Caroline, Starin' down the road, pray to God I see headlights, Made it down the coast in 17 hours, I'm pickin' me a bouquet of Dogwood flowers, And I'm a hopin' for Raleigh I can see my baby tonight.
(Chorus) So, rock me mama like a wagon wheel, Rock me mama any way you feel, Mmmmm, mama rock me. Yeah, rock me mama like the wind and the rain, Rock me mama like a southbound train, Mmmmm, mama rock me. Wooo.
Runnin' from the cold, up in New England, I was born to be a fiddler in an old time string band, My baby plays the guitar, I pick a banjo now, Whoa, north country winters keep a gettin' me, An I lost my money playin' poker, so I had to up and leave, But I ain't a goin' back, to livin' that old life no more.
(Chorus) So, rock me mama like a wagon wheel, Rock me mama any way you feel, Mmmmm, mama rock me. Oooh, rock me mama like the wind and the rain, Rock me mama like a southbound train, Mmmmm, mama rock me. Rock on.
Walkin' to the south, outa Roanoke, Caught a trucker outa Philly had a nice long toke, But he's a headed west from the Cumberland Gap, To Johnson City, Tennessee, An I got to get a move on, way 'fore the sun, I hear my baby callin' my name, and I know that she's the only one, And if I die in Raleigh, at least I will die free.
( Chorus) So, rock me mama like a wagon wheel, Rock me mama any way you feel, Mmmmm, mama rock me. Oooh, rock me mama like the wind and the rain, Rock me mama like a southbound train, Mmmmm, mama rock me.Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
