In 1973 Bob Dylan made this sketch of song in the Billy The Kid sessions. Never finished the song but, many years after that, Old Crow Medicine Show used the chorus part and the chord progression in Wagon Wheel. A collaboration thru the years for a great song.

thank you Bob for shaping the music forever for the better! i can see bob dylans childhood house from my window so my stupid city claims him as one of their own yet he hasnt been back here in decades lol Great example is how Billy Bragg took Woody's lyrics to "write" Way Down Yonder In The Minor Key. this song always consoles me during finals the entirety of college greek life listens to the old crow medicine show version multiple times a weekend. Darius Rucker didn't bring anything back. incred. Awesome comeback dude!! Agree. If you want an artist who doesn't get credit then look at LITTLE RICHARD. my email is r I have two books published at . lulu.com: one is The Book of Bendix Stories and Poems and the other is Rough Beast : Selected Poems. wery uptodate stuff asitwere OK Comment: let us enjoy anonymously what we all feel together, and if BD has dollar or two to drop in my basket I thank thee. Only, because I am broke and the last dime is under someone else's thumb This is a bootleg recording; I think that speaks for itself. How are their no comments on how shitty the audio is someone needs to clean this up for real I too love Dylan, so I relate, and am on -- "your side" or whatever, but -- there is something special about this song, because I can. not. stop-listening-to-the-various-versions of it that are on here! : ) I'm pet-sitting, & one of the CATS stays in the room and alternately nestles on the carpet, and rolls on his back with four feet in-the-air (?!) while this plays.... It's a Good Song. have nice day wrong...old crow medicine show brought it back maybe because it's not finished? You know it aint your best work when Hootie nd The Blowfish did it better .. How is a person who wrote so many songs that others use his unfinished songs to make their own song, perhaps Bob Dylan inspired old crow medicene show Bob dylan is overrated. your face is nothing special i love dylan---but this song is nothing special He does. Not rely. Dude, that was too harsh. I fingered your sister. i think she actually means credit for writing this song, everyone i know thinks Old Crow Medicine Show are the original writers
