On The Old Kentucky Shore |
I walked out to the graveyard |
Down by the Church of God |
I looked upon the one I love |
That would soon be covered with sod |
Up along the Ohio River |
Over on the old Kentucky shore |
Once dwelled a fair young maiden |
Now there’s a crepe upon her door |
The angels took my darling |
God needed the one I loved |
I reached the old Kentucky shore today |
I’ll make my plans and meet her up above |
The last words that my darling said |
Was tell the one I love goodbye |
I would like to see him before I go |
But I’ll meet him in the sky |
