High Cumberland Jubilee/comin' Down Slow

By: jimmy buffett, buzz cason

1971

Maybe leaving's better in the afternoon

When the rain don't fall so hard

From where we were we had to look down far below

To see just what went on in our own backyard



Coming down slow without a thing to show

Wondering what went on while we were up there

Mountain roads now asphalt highways that we once called heaven skyways

Children lost what is the cost to get back home again



La la la la la la la la laaaa

La la la la la la la la laaaa



It was a high cumberland jubilee

Such a high cumberland jubilee

It was a high cumberland jubilee

Such a high cumberland jubilee

It was a high cumberland jubilee

Such a high cumberland jubilee

Yeah



I'm goin' to climb up in the mountain

I'm goin' to climb up in the tree

I'm goin' to climb up in the mountain

I'm goin' to see what i can see

You know...



It was a high cumberland jubilee

Such a high cumberland jubilee
