    "Wagon Wheel" Lyrics:
    Headed down south to the land of the pines
    And I'm thumbin' my way into North Caroline
    Starin' up the road
    Pray to God I see headlights
    I made it down the coast in seventeen hours
    Pickin' 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 the guitar
    I pick a banjo now
    Oh, the North country winters keep a-gettin' me now
    Lost my money playin' poker so I had to up and leave
    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
    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
    Walkin' to the south out of Roanoke
    I caught a trucker out of Philly
    Had a nice long toke
    But he's a-headed west from the Cumberland Gap
    To Johnson City, Tennessee
    And I got to get a move on before the sun
    I hear my baby callin' my name
    And I know that she's the only one
    And if I die 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 Subscribe to Nettwerk's UA-cam channel:

    Had a friend in the Marine Corps that loved this song and played it any chance he got. He ended up taking his life after our desperate to change his mind. Anyways a year goes by and a bunch of Marines and I are visiting some family in Maryland. Someone pulled out a guitar and in our drunken emotional states we all yelled this song into the wind as loud as we could. Probably 15-20 people yelling for our buddy, all drunk and crying. I come here every day for him and I can always smell the east coast ocean and pines. Rest in Peace 1994-2015

    The first time I heard this song was at an acoustic night open mic night at a coffee house in college, the gentleman who played it had just lost his father who had taught him this song and had given him the mandolin he played it on. He sang a lot of it straight but started to break down about about two thirds in. So did we. He struggled through the tears, playing his instrument beautifully, and everyone gave him a standing ovation when he finished. I'll remember that until the day I die.

On our last day of what seemed like unlimited overwhelming freedom and adventure, we sang this song to close out the sight and there wasnt a dry eye among us. It was the perfect way to end our grand adventure and go back to our normal lives. It was a very emotional moment and has influenced so much of who i became.

    Soooo glad I stumbled upon this video, love it! This song has been on my Spotify playlist the last couple of years. Until today I had never seen the video nor knew how old the song was, I just liked it. A testament to good wholsome music.

    My grandpa used to sing this song every time i visited his place which is a days drive away so i rarely saw him. Tonight he passed due to covid. Didn’t get to say goodbye. The last time i spoke to him he sounded healthy and happy to talk to me. This song immediately came to mind as soon as i got the news. I cried and hummed this song. I love you, Poppie

    This was my favorite song when I deployed to Afghanistan in 2012. My sergeant figured out how to input iPod music into our headsets.
    When we went through particularly...unpleasant areas...we would play this song.
    I remember accepting that I could die at any moment, but at least I have good music playing when it happens.
    Three of our soldiers got killed over that deployment. But as one of my buddies said,"three of us got killed, but all of us died in 2012. The rest of us are just still here."
    Almost 12 years later, and he wasn't wrong.
