G D Em
C G D Em C G D C [Verse 1] G D Em C G D C / 2x Heading down south to the land of the pines I'm thumbing my way into North Caroline Staring 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 [Chorus] So rock me momma like a wagon wheel Rock me momma any way you feel Hey, momma rock me Rock me momma like the wind and the rain Rock me momma like a south bound train Hey, momma rock me [Verse 2] Running 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 Lost my money playing poker so I had to leave town But I ain't turning back to living that old life no more [Chorus] [Verse 3] (one strum each chord below) 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 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 die in Raleigh at least I will die free [Chorus] (soft drums, banjo, and guitar) |
