Cumberland Gap Paroles

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

Kentucky she's a waiting on the other side
Give you the fever, with the daylight in your eyes

[?] John's already gone
With the full-bird Cherokee maiden
[?] blizzard's [?]
I'd rather wrestle Satan
Cumberland gap, it's a devil of a gap
Oh, it still kept coming
Picked it up upon his back
By God, he loved that woman!


Then you stood on the pinnacle rock Kentucky she's a waiting on the other side
Give you the fever with the daylight in your eyes

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
