- Cumberland Gap Lyrics[Refrain]
Cumberland gap, it's a devil of a gap
Cumberland gap, it's a devil of a gap
[Verse 1]
Kiss me momma, kiss your boy
Bless me well and lucky
For I won't be back 'til I return
I'm gone to old Kentucky
Cumberland gap, it's a devil of a gap
That's what the scouts all tell ya
Sure enough it may get tough
If it doesn't kill ya, kill ya
[Chorus]
Kentucky she's a waiting on the other side
Give you the fever, put the daylight in your eyes
[Verse 2]
Brother John's already gone
With the full-blood Cherokee maiden
He made the trip in the blizzard's grip
I'd rather wrestle Satan
Cumberland gap, it's a devil of a gap
Oh, the snow kept coming
Picked her up upon his back
By God, he loved that woman!
[Instrumental]
[Verse 3]
Daniel stood on the pinnacle rock
Lookin' up and down the mountain
Took his trusty old flint-lock
Daniel started shoutin', shoutin':
[Chorus]
Kentucky she's a waiting on the other side
Give you the fever, put the daylight in your eyes
[Refrain]
Cumberland gap, it's a devil of a gap
Cumberland gap, it's a devil of a gap
Cumberland gap, it's a devil of a gap
Cumberland gap, it's a devil of a gap
Cumberland gap, it's a devil of a gap
Cumberland gap, it's a devil of a gap
[Verse 1]
Kiss me momma, kiss your boy
Bless me well and lucky
For I won't be back 'til I return
I'm gone to old Kentucky
Cumberland gap, it's a devil of a gap
That's what the scouts all tell ya
Sure enough it may get tough
If it doesn't kill ya, kill ya
[Chorus]
Kentucky she's a waiting on the other side
Give you the fever, put the daylight in your eyes
[Verse 2]
Brother John's already gone
With the full-blood Cherokee maiden
He made the trip in the blizzard's grip
I'd rather wrestle Satan
Oh, the snow kept coming
Picked her up upon his back
By God, he loved that woman!
[Instrumental]
[Verse 3]
Daniel stood on the pinnacle rock
Lookin' up and down the mountain
Took his trusty old flint-lock
Daniel started shoutin', shoutin':
[Chorus]
Kentucky she's a waiting on the other side
Give you the fever, put the daylight in your eyes
[Refrain]
Cumberland gap, it's a devil of a gap
Cumberland gap, it's a devil of a gap
Cumberland gap, it's a devil of a gap
Cumberland gap, it's a devil of a gap
