Church On Cumberland Road

Just about a mile off-a one-oh-nine

There's a little church sittin' back in the pines

I promised that girl she was gonna be mine

I wouldn't be surprised if she was standin' there cryin'

Whoa oa oh, I didn't know a bored-out Ford could go so slow

Who oa oh, you got to put your foot down on the floor

'Yeah we've been rockin' all night, but don't you know

You gotta get me to the Church on the Cumberland Road

Jimmy's passed out in the back, lo I know he's alive

Mike he's got his head hangin' over the side

Here we are doin' only ninety-five

What's the matter with you, man? I thought you said you could drive!

Whoa oa oh, I didn't know a bored-out Ford could go so slow

Whoa oa oh, you got to put your foot down on the floor

'Yeah we've been rockin' all night, but don't you know

You gotta get me to the Church on the Cumberland Road

Hey sweeter than the dew on a honeysuckle vine

Warmer than noon on the fourth of July

Cutest little girl that I ever have known

Waitin' at the Church on Cumberland Road

Whoa oa oh, I didn't know a bored-out Ford could go so slow

Whoa oa oh, you got to put your foot down on the floor

'Yeah we've been rockin' all night, but don't you know

You gotta get me to the Church on the Cumberland Road

Yeah we've been rockin' all night

But don't you know

You got to get me to the church on the Cumberland Road
