[Verse 1] When my soul wants to fly up high like mist on the mountain Ship me out of Tennessee When my days tick down and my clock stops counting Just let the rain do the crying for me Something in me knows I'm almost home
[Chorus] 'Cause I'm a couple hundred miles to the Cumberland Gap Sweet Appalachia keeps calling me back Grew up running through the sourwood trees And that's right where they're gonna bury me Wherever I might roam I feel it in my bones Couple hundred miles to the Cumberland Gap Sweet Appalachia keeps calling me, calling me back
[Verse 2] Well, I work real hard for a fistful of dollars But I ain't a-gonna take 'em with me So just throw 'em out the window, let 'em blow around the holler Y'all just have one on me Just raise a glass to the Youghiogheny County ghost
[Chorus] 'Cause I'm a couple hundred miles to the Cumberland Gap Sweet Appalachia keeps calling me back Grew up running through the sourwood trees And that's right where they're gonna bury me Wherever I might roam I feel it in my bones Couple hundred miles to the Cumberland Gap Sweet Appalachia keeps calling me, calling me back
[Bridge] When my soul wants to fly up high like mist on the mountain When my days tick down and my clock stops counting Well, I'm a couple hundred miles to the Cumberland Gap Sweet Appalachia keeps calling me back
[Chorus] I'm a couple hundred miles to the Cumberland Gap Sweet Appalachia keeps calling me back Grew up running through the sourwood trees And that's right where they're gonna bury me Wherever I might roam I feel it in my bones Couple hundred miles to the Cumberland Gap Sweet Appalachia keeps calling me, calling me backTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
