My Old Kentucky Home |
Turpentine and dandelion wine |
I’ve turned the corner an' I’m doin' fine |
Shootin' at the birds on the telephone line |
Pickin' 'em off with this gun o' mine |
Got a fire in my belly and a fire in my head |
Going higher and higher till I’m dead |
Sister Sue is short and stout, she didn’t grow up, she grew out |
Momma says, she’s plain but she’s just being kind |
Papa thinks she’s pretty but he’s almost blind |
Don’t let her out much except at night |
But I don’t care 'cause I’m all right |
Oh, the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home |
Young folks roll on the floor |
Oh, the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home |
Keep them hard times away from my door |
Brother Gene is big and mean and he don’t have much to say |
He had a little woman who he whooped each day |
But now she’s gone away got drunk last night |
Kicked momma down the stairs but I’m all right |
So I don’t care |
Oh, the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home |
And the young folks are rollin' on the floor |
Oh, the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home |
Keep them hard times away from my door |
Turpentine and dandelion wine |
I’ve turned the corner an' I’m doin' fine |
Shootin' at the birds on the telephone line |
Pickin' 'em off with this gun o' mine |
Got a fire in my belly and a fire in my head |
Goin' higher and higher till I’m dead |
Oh, the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home |
And the young folks are rollin' on the floor |
Oh, the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home |
Keep them hard times away from my door |
Keep them hard times away from my door |
