Kentucky Lyrics

Kentucky lyrics

Kentucky, you are the dearest land outside of Heaven to me

Kentucky, I miss your laurels and your redbud trees

When I die, I want to rest upon your graceful mountains so free

For that is where God will look for me



Kentucky, I miss the old folks singing in the silvery moonlight

Kentucky, I miss the hound dogs chasin' coons

I know that my mother, dad and sweetheart are waiting for me

Kentucky, I will be coming soon, Kentucky
