Cumberland Gap ain't my home
I'm gonna leave before too long
Cumberland Gap ain't very far
Just four miles from Middlesborough
Lay down boys, take a little rest
We'll wake up in the whippoorwill's nest
Lay down boys, take a little nap
We'll all wake up in Cumberland Gap
Me and my wife and her grandpap
Walked all the way from Cumberland Gap
Cumberland Gap is an awful place
Can't get enough water to wash your face
When I die I'll make my will
I want to be buried on Cumberland Hill
Cumberland Gap ain't my home
I'm gonna leave before too long
Cumberland Gap's an awful place
Not enough water to wash your face
I'm gonna leave before too long
Cumberland Gap ain't very far
Just four miles from Middlesborough
Lay down boys, take a little rest
We'll wake up in the whippoorwill's nest
Lay down boys, take a little nap
We'll all wake up in Cumberland Gap
Me and my wife and her grandpap
Walked all the way from Cumberland Gap
Cumberland Gap is an awful place
Can't get enough water to wash your face
When I die I'll make my will
I want to be buried on Cumberland Hill
Cumberland Gap ain't my home
I'm gonna leave before too long
Cumberland Gap's an awful place
Not enough water to wash your face
