Lyrics:
Cumberland Gap
Appalachian Folk Song
Arranged by Connie Boss
Refrain:
Cumberland Gap, Cumberland Gap
It’s a long journey through the Cumberland Gap
Cumberland Gap, Cumberland Gap
They had to make a map just to find their way back
Verse 1:
To get across the mountain they had to make a path
Cumberland Gap, Cumberland Gap
The rocks were very big and they were hard to pass
Cumberland Gap, Cumberland Gap
Refrain:
Verse 2:
The gap was very treacherous, but they did their best
Cumberland Gap, Cumberland Gap
They had to make through it to travel out West
Cumberland Gap, Cumberland Gap
Refrain:
Verse 3:
The gap was used in many of the past wars
Cumberland Gap, Cumberland Gap
And they all believed what they were fighting for
Cumberland Gap, Cumberland Gap
Final Refrain:
Cumberland Gap, Cumberland Gap - repeat
