[C] Headed down south to the [G] land of the pines
And I'm [Am] thumbin' my way into [F] North Caroline

I [C] made it down the coast in [G] seventeen hours

I can [G] see my baby to[
F]night

My [C] baby plays the guitar, [G] I pick a banjo [F] now
Oh, the [C] North country winters keep a [G] gettin' me now
Lost my [Am] money playin' poker so I [F] had to up and leave

To [G] livin' that old life [F] no more

I caught a [Am] trucker out of Philly
Had a [F] nice long toke
But [C] he's a headed west from the [G] Cumberland Gap
To [F] Johnson City, Tennessee
And I [C] gotta get a move on [G] fit for the sun

And [C] if I die in Raleigh at [G] least I will die [F] free
