I'm Old Kentucky Bound

Some Where among the hills of old Kentucky

there's two old folks I love with all my heart.

They're Praying for their boy to come back safely,

And never no more from them depart.

There's a little sweetheart waiting for her darling,

With her heart all filled with love divine.

I long to hold her in my arms and kiss her.

For tonight I'm old Kentucky bound.

In summer when the birds are singing sweetly

And pretty flowers blooming all around.

I long to climb that dear old rocky mountain.

For tonight I'm old Kentucky bound.

I'll soon be with the ones I love so dearly.

Lord, how I wish I had them with me now.

They'll greet me when I reach that little shanty.

For tonight I'm old Kentucky bound.
