DARIUS RUCKER: WAGON WHEEL.


DARIUS RUCKER was the lead singer and Rhythm guitarist of the nineties successful band Hootie and The Blowfish. Recently he has published his fourth solo album entitled True Believers, an excellent work with that retrieves the success of the past. This is WAGON WHEEL a Bob Dylan cover, one of the reason to believe in Rucker again. Hope You Like.




LYRICS

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

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

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
I lost my money playing poker so I had to leave town
But I ain't turning back to living that old life no more

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

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
And 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 died in Raleigh at least I will die free

[2x]
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

Darius Rucker was the lead singer of one of my favourite groups. And his solo albums are very good. This song is quite good. I have listened before "It Won't Be Like This For Long" and it's a great song. It's a very good choice what you've made for this entry.

I have chosen Dylan's Cover because this is the song that it has sold the album in USA. I am sure he has lots of good songs at this album, but this is the reality.
