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.
