[Verse]
D
Just about a mile off a one oh nine
D
There's a little church sittin' back in the pines
D
I promised that girl she was gonna be mine
D
I wouldn't be surprised if she was standin' there cryin'
[Chorus]
G F D
Wo-oh, I didn't know a bored-out Ford could go so slow.
G F D
Wo-oh, You got to put your foot down on the floor,
A7
'Yeah we've been rocking all night, but, don't you know
D
You gotta get me to the church on Cumberland Road.
[Verse]
D
Jimmy's passed out in the back lord we know he's alive
D
ol' Mikey's got his head hangin' over the side
D
here you are doin' only 95, what's the matter with you
D
man I thought you said you could drive.
[Chorus]
G F D
Wo-oh, I didn't know a bored-out Ford could go so slow.
G F D
Wo-oh, You got to put your foot down on the floor,
A7
'Yeah we've been rocking all night, but, don't you know
D
You gotta get me to the church on Cumberland Road.

[Verse]
D
Sweeter than the dew on a honeysuckle vine,
D
Hotter than noon on the Fourth of July,
D
Cutest little girl that I ever have known
D
Waitin' at the church on Cumberland Road.
[Chorus]
A7
Yeah we been rockin' all night but don't you know you gotta
D
get me to the church on Cumberland Road.
