( sung on the A part )

I'm going back to Cumberland Gap, to see my granny and my grand pap,

I'll get some money and buy me a farm, raise sweet taters long as your arm.

I laid down, took a little nap, woke up somewhere in the Cumberland Gap,

Cumberland Gap, Cumberland Gap, woke up somewhere in the Cumberland Gap.

Old Aunt Kate, if you don't care, leave my demijohn setting right here,

if it ain't here when I get back, I'll raise hell in the Cumberland Gap.

Cumberland Gap's a mighty dry place, not enough water to wash your face

 ( sung on the C part )

“Long dead and gone!” x2

New verse by Mark Tamsula

( sung on the A part )

Cumberland Gap wasn’t there before,

Along came a big 'ol meteor

Meteor, meteor,

Gave ‘ol Cumberland a new back door.
