We're goin' west to Kaintuck down the road to Moccasin GapDown the wilderness roadThe Dug Road the old Reedy Creek RoadThe Road down Troublesome Road through Moccasin GapThere was a time when goin' way out west meant goin' to KaintuckThe dark and bloody ground as Indians called itIndians wars were ragin' and men like Daniel Boone and Michael StonerCame down the wilderness road like countless families didThrough a place in south West Virginia called Big Moccasin GapIt's a hot day in '73 and this is my wife and my kids with meDaniel Boone lost his boy the other day young Jim Boone is dead twenty miles awayThe wagons turn and went back home even Daniel couldn't make it aloneI guess prob'ly Daniel could but he stopped awhile in castle wood(If you love your wife and love your baby manTurn your wagons back as soon as you canEv'ry Injun in these hills has gone berserk you never gonna make it to Kaintuck)Ah I bet I'm gonna make it to KaintuckWe're goin' west to Kaintuck...The Dug Road the old Reedy Creek RoadThe Road down Troublesome Road through Moccasin Gap
