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
