Shenandoah - Church On Cumberland Road
Just about a mile off of 109There'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'
Oh-oh, I didn't know this bored-out Ford could go so slow
Oh-oh, you got to put your foot down on the floor
Yeah, we've been rocking all night, but don't you know
You got to get me to the church on the Cumberland Road
Billy's passed out in the back, But I think he's alive
Bobby'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
Oh-oh, I didn't know a bored-out Ford could go so slow
Oh-oh, you got to put your foot down on the floor
Yeah, we've been rocking all night, but don't you know
You got to get me to the church on the Cumberland Road
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 the Cumberland Road
Oh-oh, I didn't know this bored-out Ford could go so slow
Oh-oh, you got to put your foot down on the floor
'Cause we've been rocking all night, but don't you know
You got to get me to the church on the Cumberland Road
And we've been rocking all night, but don't you know
You got to get me to the church on the Cumberland Road
