Cumberland Gap 1. Cumberland Gap, with its hills and rocks, Cumberland Gap, with its hills and rocks. Cumberland Gap, with its hills and rocks, Home of the panther, bears and fox. [CHORUS] Lay down, boys, and take a little nap, They’re kickin’ up a fuss in the Cumberland Gap. Lay down, boys, and take a little nap, They’re kickin’ up a fuss in the Cumberland Gap. 2. Cumberland Gap is a mighty fine place, Cumberland Gap is a mighty fine place, Cumberland Gap is a mighty fine place, Three kinds of water to wash your face. 3. Me and my wife and my wife's pap We're all going down to Cumberland Gap Me and my wife and my wife's pap We're all going down to Cumberland Gap. There are lots of versions of this song.
