Wagon Wheel - Darius Rucker

Headed down south to the land of the pines I'm thumbin' my way into North Caroline Starin' up the road And pray to God I see headlights I made it down the coast in 17 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, anyway 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 turnin' back To livin' that old life no more So rock me, mama, like a wagon wheel Rock me, mama, anyway 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 headed west from the Cumberland Gap To Johnson City, Tennessee And I gotta get a move on fit for 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, anyway 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

Sleigh bells ring, are you listening? In the lane, snow is glistening A beautiful sight, we're happy tonight Walking in a winter wonderland Gone away is the bluebird Here to stay is a new bird He sings a love song as we go along Walking in a winter wonderland In the meadow we can build a snowman And pretend that he is Parson Brown He'll say, "Are you married?" We'll say, "No man But you can do the job when you're in town" Later on, we'll conspire As we dream by the fire To face unafraid the plans that we've made Walking in a winter wonderland In the meadow we can build a snowman And pretend that he is a circus clown We'll have lots of fun with Mr Snowman Until the other kids knock him down When it snows, ain't it thrilling? Throw your nose against the chilling We'll frolic and play the Eskimo way Walking in a winter wonderland To face unafraid the plans that we've made Walking in a winter wonderland Walking in a winter wonderland Walking in a winter wonderland

If you think I could ever go a day without you Five minutes without thinkin' about you Don't And if you wonder if it scares me Thinkin' about forever with you, baby I can tell you, baby, it don't, oh 'Cause every single mornin' My eyes fall open on you It's like my dreams keep goin' On and on and on, it don't Matter what we're doin' As long as I'm with you, and I can't imagine anything I couldn't love you through the bad days There's gonna be mistakes But, baby, I'm here to stay And if you think that could change Don't Stop makin' me late for work Wakin' me up without sayin' a word Ooh, don't 'Cause when you whisper in my ear Everything I wanna hear I know you know, I need to go But you're the reason that I don't 'Cause every single mornin' My eyes fall open on you It's like my dreams keep goin' On and on and on, it don't Matter what we're doin' As long as I'm with you, and I can't imagine anything I couldn't love you through the bad days There's gonna be mistakes But, baby, I'm here to stay And if you think that could change Don't Oh, baby, don't Oh, and if you ever wonder If I regret the day I said, "I do" Don't 'Cause every single mornin' My eyes fall open on you It's like my dreams keep goin' On and on and on, it don't Matter what we're doin' As long as I'm with you, and I can't imagine anything I couldn't love you through the bad days There's gonna be mistakes But, baby, I'm here to stay And if you think that could change Don't Baby, don't Don't you think I don't Oh, yeah, I know Baby, don't

You didn't see me walkin' in You're looking in the mirror and You look perfect Haven't put on your makeup yet You're sayin' how your hair's a mess But you looked perfect You don't see what I see when I look at you girl You don't know how beautiful you are You're never ready and you need more time You say your jeans never fit you right But your eyes and your shy little smile and your own kinda style It's so perfect I hear you singin' to the radio Sometimes you miss a couple high notes But it sounds perfect And when we go out and everywhere's too crowded And we just end up drivin' around Oh, baby, it's still perfect No, you don't see what I see when I look at you girl You don't know how beautiful you are You're never ready and you need more time You say your dress never fit you right But your eyes and your shy little smile and your own special style It's so perfect Your touch and your kiss and your skin and your lips And your name All the little imperfections you wish you could change Yeah, every little everything You don't see what I see when I look at you girl You don't know how beautiful you are You're never ready and you need more time You say nothing ever fits you right But your eyes and your shy little smile and your own kinda style And your touch, and your kiss, and your skin, they all drive me wild You're perfect, perfect Oh so perfect, yeah Perfect, perfect Oh, you're perfect, yeah

17, the only way I had a car Is after I dropped my mama off where she needed to go Four bald tires, with the ceiling falling and the window stuck But the only thing that I cared about was a radio We'd turn it on, turn it up to ten And everybody would jump on in Ridin' down the highway Who wants to be the DJ? I'll find a spot on the side of the road You'll find somethin' on the radio Like a feel-real-good song We'll know it when it comes on Didn't have no money, no place to go All we needed was a radio, oh-oh I'd grab my girl, we'd look for somewhere to watch the stars The perfect place to put it in park and take it slow She'd sing along to even the ones that she barely knew She still sounded good, a little outta tune, but we didn't care I'd look at her, she'd look at me I'll never forget that melody Ridin' down the highway Who wants to be the DJ? I'll find a spot on the side of the road You'll find somethin' on the radio Like a feel-real-good song We'll know it when it comes on Didn't have no money, no place to go All we needed was a radio, oh-oh Hey y'all, be quiet That's my favorite song Hey man, turn it up loud Come on, come on, come on Ridin' down the highway Who wants to be the DJ? I'll find a spot on the side of the road And you'll find somethin' on the radio Like a feel-real-good song We'll know it when it comes on I didn't have no money, no place to go All we needed was a radio, oh-oh (Radio, rad-radio) oh-oh (Radio, rad-radio) All we needed, all we needed now Was a, was a, was a radio (Radio, rad-radio) (Radio, rad-radio) (Radio, rad-radio)
