Somebody asked me if I'd been to old Kentucky
If I'd seen the green hills in the early morning light
I just laughed and smiled, said you know that I've been lucky
I've got visions of Kentucky, in every corner of my mind.
I fust saw Kentucky when I was seventeen
And them green Kentucky hills
Rollin to the sky
Ripplin waters flowin
Under that Moonshine
Been around the World
But I've never rest my eyes
On a place as sweet as home
Under Blue Kentucky Skies
On a place as sweet as home
Under Blue Kentucky Sky
Well I've lived a life I've been up and I've been down
