Text: Grant Lee Buffalo. Mighty Joe Moon.

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 ya been to the Cumberland Gap? Oh, no
The air is sweeter than oranges now
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
