Kentucky you are the dearest land outside of Heaven to me
Kentucky your laurels and your red bud trees
When I die I want to rest upon your graceful mountain so high
Kentucky that is where God will look for me
Kentucky I miss the voices singing in the silvery moonlight
Kentucky I miss the hound dog chasing coon
I know that my mother dad &sweetheart all are waiting for me
Kentucky I will be coming soon
Kentucky you are the dearest land outside of Heaven to me
Kentucky I will be coming soon
