Josh Ritter - Cumberland lyrics

All of my friends said "What's out in Cumberland?" "Gonna get lonesome when you get out to Cumberland" "Stay in the city, boy, winter is a wonderland" They all mean well I will remember them (Oh boy) Gotta get yourself back to the country now, country now (Oh boy) Gotta get yourself back to the country now Wander through the holler, honey Wander through the glen Neighborly with fiddleheads, copperheads, and moccasins Build a little cabin, honey, throw a window in Watch the breeze blowin' through the hickories and dandellins (Oh boy) Gotta get yourself back to the country now, country now (Oh boy) Gotta get yourself back to the country now If you get there before I do Tell everybody I'm a'coming too I know a pretty girl She's the prettiest there's ever been Wild as a weed, sweeter than a mandolin I ain't a handsome man but I bet she'd take me as I am I haven't met her yet Bet she lives in Cumberland (Oh boy) Gotta get yourself back to the country now, country now (Oh boy) Gotta get yourself back to the country now So before you start talkin' 'bout the wonders of the world again The Taj Mahal, the Great Wall, the places that I never been Take a little drive, take a little trip to Heaven and Wonder for a while if it's Paradise or Cumberland (Oh boy) Get yourself back to the country now, country now (Oh boy) Gotta get yourself back to the country now (Oh boy) Gotta get yourself back to the country now, to the country now (Oh boy) Gotta get yourself back to the country now
