Johnny Cash - The Road to Kaintuck lyrics
[Johnny Cash - The Road to Kaintuck lyrics]
The road to Moccasin Gap
Down the wilderness road
The Dug Road the old Reedy Creek Road
The Road down Troublesome Road
Through Moccasin Gap
There was a time when going way
Out west meant going to Kaintuck
The dark and bloody ground
As Indians called it
Indians wars were ragin' and men like
Daniel Boone and Michael Stoner
Came down the wilderness road
Like countless families did
Through a place in south West
Virginia called Big Moccasin Gap
It's a hot day in '73 and this is
My wife and my kids with me
Daniel Boone lost his boy the other day young
Jim Boone is dead twenty miles away
The wagons turn and went back home
Even Daniel couldn't make it alone
I guess probably Daniel could but he
Stopped awhile in castle wood
If you love your wife and love your baby man
Turn your wagons back as soon as you can
Every Injun in these hills has gone berserk
You never gonna make it to Kaintuck
Ah I bet I'm going to make it to Kaintuck
We're going west to Kaintuck down
The road to Moccasin Gap
Down the wilderness road
The Dug Road the old Reedy Creek Road
The Road down Troublesome Road
Through Moccasin Gap
The Dug Road the old Reedy Creek Road
The Road down Troublesome Road
Through Moccasin Gap
