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 |
