Lyrics
Oh Cumberland Fire on the asphalt, L.A. freeway Santa Anna windstorm, come blow me away 'Cause this rearview mirror could use some adjustment Some other reflection, some other place. Oh, Cumberland, I'm a faithful son No matter where I go, I hear you calling me The Mississippi's wide long, St. Paul to New Orleans But my heart's resting on your banks in Tennessee. Lazy ol' river, not a lick of ambition Get to Kentucky then you roll on home If you were a highway, you wouldn't go nowhere And I wouldn't be lost and all alone. Oh, Cumberland, I'm a faithful son No matter where I go, I hear you calling me The Mississippi's wide long, St. Paul to New Orleans But my heart's resting on your banks in Tennessee. There's a stolen river in the San Fernando Down in the valley, in the shadow of greed But I have a memory, knee deep in salvation That old muddy water that once washed me clean. Oh, Cumberland, I'm a faithful son No matter where I go, I hear you calling me Mississippi's wide long, St. Paul to New Orleans But my heart's resting on your banks in Tennessee. Oh, Cumberland Oh, Cumberland.
