Cumberland Gap

Cumberland Gap ain't my homeI'm gonna leave before too long.Cumberland Gap ain't very far,Just four miles from Middlesborough;Lay down boys, take a little restWe'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 placeCan'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 homeI'm gonna leave before too long.Cumberland Gap's an awful placeNot enough water to wash your face.
