Lay down, boys, and take a little nap
We're all going down to Cumberland Gap
We're all going down to Cumberland Gap
Cumberland Gap's a devil of a place
Couldn't find water to wash my faceâ¦
Pretty little girl if you don't care
I'll leave my demijohn a sittin' right thereâ¦
If it ain't here when I get back
I'll raise hell in Cumberland Gapâ¦
Me an' my wife an' my wife's pap
Walked all the way from Cumberland Gapâ¦
Lay down, boys, and take a little nap
Snow knee-deep in Cumberland Gapâ¦
Cumberland Gap ain't my home
I'm going to leave Cumberland aloneâ¦
Lay down, boys, and take a little rest
We'll all wake up in a whippoorwill's nestâ¦
Save up some money and buy me a farm
Raise sweet âtaters as long as your armâ¦
