jason isbell and the 400 unit - cumberland gap lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
there’s an answer here if i look hard enough
there’s a reason why i always reach for the harder stuff
it wasn’t my daddy’s way
he was down in the mines all day
i know he wanted more than mouths to feed and bills to pay

[chorus]
maybe the c-mberland gap just swallows you whole
maybe the c-mberland gap just swallows you whole

[verse 2]
i ain’t cut out for war unless i know what i’m fighting for
and there’s nothing here but churches, bars, and grocery stores
there ain’t much money in the old time mandolin
so i cash my check and i drink ’til i’m on my -ss again

[chorus]
maybe the c-mberland gap just swallows you whole
maybe the c-mberland gap just swallows you whole
maybe the c-mberland gap just swallows you whole

[bridge]
remember when we could see the mountain’s peak?
the sparkle off the [?]
like a giant golden eagle’s beak
now they say no one wants the coal

[verse 3]
i thought about moving away
but what would my mama say?
i’m all that she has left and i’m with her every day
as soon as the sun goes down
i find my way to the mustang lounge
and if you don’t sit facing the window
you could be in any town

[chorus]
maybe the c-mberland gap just swallows you whole
maybe the c-mberland gap just swallows you whole
maybe the c-mberland gap just swallows you whole
maybe the c-mberland gap just swallows you whole
