and pray to God I see headlights
I made it down the coast in 17 hours
And I'm hoping for Raleigh,
I can see my baby tonight
So rock me, mama, like a wagon wheel
Rock me, mama, any way you feel
like the wind and the rain
Rock me, mama, like a southbound train
Runnin' from the cold off of New England
I was born to be a fiddler
in an old -time string band
My baby plays the guitar,
Oh, North Country winters
Lost my money playin' poker
But I ain't a -turnin' back
to livin' that old life no more
So rock me, mama, like a wagon wheel
Rock me, mama, any way you feel
like the wind and the rain
Rock me, mama, like a southbound train
Walking to the south out of Roanoke
I caught a trucker out of Philly
to johnson city tennessee
i got i gotta move on before the sun
i hear my baby calling my name
and i know that she's the only one
so rock me mama like a wagon wheel
Mama, like the wind and the rain
Mama, like a wide -open view
Mama, any way I wanna feel
Mama, like the wind and the rain
Rock me, mama, like a southbound train
Mama, rock me, rock me, rock me
