There was a time when going way out West meant going to Kaintuck
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
The dark and bloody ground as Indians called it
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Indians wars were ragin' and men like Daniel Boone and Michael Stoner
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
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"
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
The wagons turn and went back home, even Daniel couldn't make it alone
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
I guess probably Daniel could but he stopped awhile in Castlewood

You better turn them wagons back as soon as you
