The Church On Cumberland Road

Just about a mile off the 109

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'

Oh-whoa

I didn't know a bored-out Ford could go so slow

Oh-whoa

You got to put your foot down on the floor

Yeah, we've been rockin' all night, but don't you know

You've 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 you are doin' only ninety-five

What's the matter with you, man, I thought you said you could drive

Oh-whoa

I didn't know a bored-out Ford could go so slow

Oh-whoa

You got to put your foot down on the floor

Yeah, we've been rockin' all night, but don't you know

You've 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-whoa

I didn't know a bored-out Ford could go so slow

Oh-whoa

You got to put your foot down on the floor

'Cause we've been rockin' all night, but don't you know

You've got to get me to the church on the Cumberland Road

Yeah, we've been rockin' all night, but don't you know

You've got to get me to the church on the Cumberland Road
