Osborne Brothers - Kentucky lyrics

(Karl Davis)

Kentucky you are the dearest land outside of heaven to me

Kentucky your laurels your redbud trees

When I die I want to rest upon some peaceful mountains so high

For that is where God will look for me.

--- Instrumental ---

Kentucky I miss the old folks singing in the silvery moonlight

Kentucky I miss the hound dogs chasing coons

I know that my mother dad and sweetheart are awaiting for me

Kentucky I will be coming soon...
