Billy Bob Thornton & The Peasall Sisters - Road To Kaintuck lyrics

rate me

We're goin' west to Kaintuck<br />

Down the road to Moccasin Gap, down the Wilderness Road<br />

The Dug Road the old Reedy Creek Road, the road down Troublesome<br />

The Road through Moccasin Gap<br />

<br />

There was a time when goin' way out west meant goin' to Kaintuck<br />

The dark and bloody ground as Indians called it<br />

Indian wars were ragin' and men like Daniel Boone and Michael Stoner<br />

Came down the Wilderness Road like countless families did<br />

<br />

Through a place in south West Virginia they called Big Moccasin Gap<br />

That's a hot day in '73 and this is my wife and my kids with me<br />

Daniel Boone lost his boy the other day<br />

Young Jim Boone is dead ‘bout twenty miles away<br />

<br />

The wagons turned and went back home<br />

Even Daniel couldn't make it alone<br />

I guess prob'ly Daniel could<br />

But he stopped awhile there in Castle Wood<br />

<br />

If you love your wife and love your baby man<br />

You better turn your wagons back as soon as you can<br />

Ev'ry Injun in them hills has gone berserk<br />

And you never gonna make it to Kaintuck<br />

Oh, I bet I'm gonna make it to Kaintuck<br />

<br />

We're goin' west to Kaintuck<br />

Down the road to Moccasin Gap, down the Wilderness Road<br />

The Dug Road, the old Reedy Creek Road, road down Troublesome<br />

Road through Moccasin Gap<br />

The Dug Road, the old Reedy Creek Road, road down Troublesome<br />

Road through Moccasin Gap
