A re-recording of a track originally on "Between Hell and Baton Rouge"

lyrics

The Cumberland (in a van down by the river)
Lyrics Music/Steven Stubblefield

Well, I could’ve been strong enough and I could never know.
You wanted me to stay, but you wanted me to go.
So, I live in a van down by the river where lonely heart night after night
drowns in the Cumberland.

I couldn’t if you ask me tell you how we got this way.
I did everything, everyday so you would want me to stay.
Now, I live in a van down by the river where lonely heart night after night
drowns in the Cumberland.

Well, I couldn’t say you were wrong and I couldn’t say I was right.
I know I could never forget you you’re here with me every night.
But, I live in a van down by the river where lonely heart night after night.
Well, I live in a van down by the river where lonely heart night after night
drowns in the Cumberland.
