lirik lagu addison johnson – cumberland river ’58
[verse 1]
neon shines on the cumberland river like the moon across the plains
around ’58 came a guitar picker, billy rawlins was his name
he strolled on down to printer’s alley and played a couple of songs
then a fat~cat in a cowboy hat said boy won’t you come along?
that voice is strong
[verse 2]
he was spreading like wildfire across the land the next hank williams they said
he met a pretty woman at the opry house she took him back to bed
at the el dorado motel room there was no ring in sight
just a knock on the door that sounded like thе lord
and old fat~cat saw his wife
[chorus]
down at the bottom of the cumbеrland river it’s as dark as night
yeah the water’s too deep and the bank’s too steep to ever crawl out alive
yeah down at the bottom of the cumberland river there’s secrets you won’t find
like a three fifty~seven a fifty~two gibson and a boy in his prime
and the pedal steel cries
[verse 3]
they searched and searched for two long months and never found a trace
it was rumoured he went back to austin and just couldn’t handle the fame
yeah that fat~cat’s in his office with the next big sound
says you’ll sink or swim don’t let it pull you in ‘cos boy you might just drown
[chorus]
down at the bottom of the cumberland river it’s as dark as night
yeah the water’s too deep and the bank’s too steep to ever crawl out alive
yeah down at the bottom of the cumberland river there’s secrets you won’t find
like a three fifty~seven a fifty~two gibson and a boy in his prime
in his prime
[outro]
neon shines on the cumberland river like the moon across the plains
