My Old Kentucky Home (Turpentine And Dandelion Wine) |
Turpentine, dandelion wine |
Turnin' the corner and I’m doin' fine |
Shootin' at the birds on the telephone line |
Pickin' 'em off with this gun of mine |
I got a fire in my belly, fire in my head |
Gonna hi-di-ha 'til I’m dead |
Sister Sue, short and stout |
She didn’t grow up she grew out |
Mama thinks she’s pretty and she’s being kind |
Papa thinks she’s lovely and he’s half blind |
Don’t let her out much except at night |
I don’t care 'cause I’m all right |
Oh the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home |
And the young folks lay on the floor |
Oh the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home |
Keep them bad times away from my door |
Brother Gene, he’s big and mean, |
But don’t have much to say |
He had a little woman that he’d whup each day |
But now she’s gone away |
He got drunk last night, kickin' Mama down the stairs |
I’m all right and I don’t care |
Oh the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home |
And the young folks lay on the floor |
Oh the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home |
Keep them bad times away from my door |
