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

We're goin' 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
The Road through Moccasin Gap

There was a time when goin' way out west meant goin' to Kaintuck
The dark and bloody ground as Indians called it
Indian 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 they called Big Moccasin Gap
That'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 ‘bout twenty miles away

The wagons turned and went back home
Even Daniel couldn't make it alone
I guess prob'ly Daniel could
But he stopped awhile there in Castle Wood

If you love your wife and love your baby man
You better turn your wagons back as soon as you can
Ev'ry Injun in them hills has gone berserk
And you never gonna make it to Kaintuck
Oh, I bet I'm gonna make it to Kaintuck

We're goin' west to Kaintuck
Down the road to Moccasin Gap, down the Wilderness Road
The Dug Road, the old Reedy Creek Road, road down Troublesome
Road through Moccasin Gap
The Dug Road, the old Reedy Creek Road, road down Troublesome
Road through Moccasin Gap
