Wagon Wheel (Tribute in the Style of Darius Rucker) - DJ Mixmasters

Headin' down south to the land of the pines

I’m thumbin' my way into North Caroline

Starin' up the road and pray to God I see headlights

I made it down the coast in seventeen hours

Picking me a bouquet of dogwood flowers

And I’m a-hopin' for Raleigh, I can see my baby tonight

So, rock me mama like a wagon wheel

Rock me mama any way you feel

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

Runnin' from the cold up in New England

I was born to be a fiddler in an old time string band

My baby plays a guitar, I pick a banjo now

Oh, north country winters keep a-getting me down

I lost my money playing poker so I had to leave town

But I ain’t turning back to living that old life no more

So, rock me mamma like a wagon wheel

Rock me mama any way you feel

Hey… momma rock me

Rock me mama like the wind and the rain

Rock me mama like a south bound train

Hey… mama rock me

Walkin' to the south out of Roanoke

I caught a trucker out of Philly, had a nice long toke

But he’s a heading west from the Cumberland gap

To Johnson City, Tennessee

And I gotta get a move on before the sun

I hear my baby calling my name and I know that she’s the only one

And if I died in Raleigh at least I will die free

So, rock me mama like a wagon wheel

Rock me mama any way you feel

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

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
