The song was "Uneasy Rider", I don't think it was by Charlie Daniels
I don't know if someone else recorded it first, but I saw him sing it as early as the early 70's and it's on one of his first recorded albums.
Back in those day you could catch the Marshall Tucker Band with Charlie playing the fiddle.
That was a treat!
Great concert!
Just checked, definitely credited alone for the lyrics...
