Oh Now, Lay Down Boys and Take a Little Nap

<p>Cumberland Gap Traditional</p><p>Oh now, lay down boys and take a little nap, Fourteen miles to the Cumberland Gap Now first white man in the Cumberland Gap, He’s old Doc Walker, an English chap</p><p>Now lay down boys, take a little nap, I’ll be raising hell in the Cumberland Gap</p><p>Now old Dan’l Boone and his old flintlock, Made a road through the Cumberland Gap Oh, Cumberland Gap is a noted place, Three kinds of water to wash your face</p><p>Yeah, the Cumberland Gap with its cliffs and rocks, The home of the panther, the bear, and the fox</p><p>Oh, September morning, ’62, Morgan’s yankees all withdrew They spiked Long Tom on the mountaintop, Over the cliffs and they let him drop</p><p>Oh they burned the hay, the meal, and meat, They left the Rebels nothing to eat Oh Braxton Bragg with his Rebel band, They run George Morgan to the bluegrass land</p><p>Oh, Cumberland Gap is not very far, Just a little piece from Middlesboro Me and my wife and my wife's pap, We all lived out of Cumberland Gap</p>
