Just a few long hours and I'll be in her arms Where I belong and where I long to be I can hear her voice she's calling me home To her blue moon that shines for all to see Yes I'm bringing me home to you why I left you's still a mystery But it won't be long and soon you'll be with me And soon you'll be by my side and I can walk with pride
Under wild Kentucky skies with the sunshine in my eyes So shine on shine on me wild Kentucky skies Weep no more my lady weep no more today For soon you will be with me I'm homeward bound homeward bound to stay And soon you'll be by my side... Shine on shine on me wild Kentucky skies I love these wild Kentucky skies
