guitarist Matt Andersen. While manual labour wasn't his calling, hard work is
something you pride yourself on growing up in a small-town. Having played over

It's the best version of this song I've ever heard.
Capo on 2
Intro: G D Em C G D C
G D
Headed down south to the land of the pines
Em C
And I'm thumbin' my way into North Caroline
G D C
Starin' up the road and pray to God I see headlights
G D
I made it down the coast in seventeen hours
Em C
Pickin' me a bouquet of dogwood flowers
G D C
And I'm a hopin' for Raleigh So I can see my baby tonight
[Chorus]
G D
So rock me mama like a wagon wheel
Em C
Rock me mama anyway you feel
G C
Hey mama rock me
G D
Rock me mama like the wind and the rain
Em C
Rock me mama like a south-bound train
G C
Hey mama rock me
G D
Running from the cold up in New England.
Em C
I was born to be a fiddler in an old time string band.
G D C
My baby plays a guitar,I pick a banjo now
G D
Oh north country winters started getting me down,
Em C
I lost my money playing poker so I had to up and leave.
G D C
But I ain't turning back to living that old life no more.
[Chorus]
G D
I was Walkin' though the south out of Roanoke,
Em C
I caught a trucker out of Philly had a nice long toke.
G D
But he’s heading west from the Cumberland gap,
C
Johnson City, Tennessee.
G D
Now I gotta get a move on pray the sun,
Em C
I hear my baby calling my name she’s says I’m the only one.
G D C
And If I die in Raleigh at least I will die free.
[Chorus]
