VERSE 01: Ev’ry time I get lonesome,/And it’s most ev’ry day/Somehow my thoughts they wander,/Down old Kentucky way./I s’pose you’d like to know why, the reason that I should care/But you needn’t be surprised, when you find out I’m down there. CHORUS: In the hills of old Kentucky, along the trail where the Blue Grass grows/Someone waits for me and I’ll son be,/Going there for goodness knows, I love her/And when I meet her, I’ll get the preacher, what could be sweeter with my ‘Rose”/In the hills of old Kentucky, along the trail where the Blue Grass grows. VERSE 02: My heart it keeps a yearning,/Not satisfied somehow/For old Kentucky haunts me,/Wish I was down there now./I’ll buy a home ‘way down there and if you call I’m sure/I’ll be mighty glad to share, my hospitality’s yours. | |
