Lay down boys, and take a little nap
Snow knee-deep in Cumberland Gap
Cumberland Gap's a devil of a place
Couldn't find water to wash my face
Me an' my wife an' my wife's pap
Walked all the way from Cumberland Gap
Pretty little girl if you don't care
I'll leave my demijohn a sittin' right there
If it ain't here when I get back
I'll raise hell in Cumberland Gap
Lay down boys, and take a little rest
We'll all wake up in a whippoorwill's nest
