Intro
Verse 1
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
Instrumental
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
So rock me momma like a wagon
wheel
Rock me momma any way you feel
Hey, momma rock me
Yeah, rock me momma like the
wind and the rain
Rock me momma like a south bound
train
Hey, momma rock me
Instrumental
[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)
So rock me momma like a wagon
wheel
Rock me momma any way you feel
Hey, momma rock me
Oh, rock me momma like the wind
and the rain
Rock me momma like a south bound
train
Hey, hey momma rock me
(normal strumming)
Oh, so rock me momma like a
wagon wheel
Ohhhhhhhhhhhh, I wanna feel
(Rock me momma any way you feel)
Hey, hey momma rock me, momma
rock me, momma rock me
Rock me momma like the wind and
the rain
Rock me momma like a south bound
train
Hey, yeah yeah, momma rock me,
you can rock me, rock me
