Have you been to the cumberland gap oh no
Fix your eyes on the green of the map oh no
Where the appalachians rise oh no
Oh no

Have you tasted the finest of trout oh no
Have you slept in a log-burning house oh no
With your feet flopping over the couch oh no
Oh no

Like mighty joe moon there is no controlling him
Drive off a bridge if he choose to swim
Mighty joe moon can't prevent what is heaven sent
Joe can't control where his money goes
He's mighty joe

Have you been to the cumberland gap oh no
The air is sweeter than oranges now oh no
Oh no

And mighty joe moon there is no controlling him
Drive off a bridge if he choose to swim
Mighty joe moon can't prevent what is heaven sent
Joe can't control where his money goes
He's mighty joe
