Jerry Reed - Kentucky lyrics

Kentucky you are the dearest land outside of heaven to me Kentucky I miss your laurels and your redbud trees When I die I want to rest upon a graceful mountain so high For that is where God will look for me Kentucky I miss the songs they're singing in the silvery moonlight Kentucky how I miss those hound dogs chasing coons I know that my mother dad and sweetheart all waiting for me Kentucky I'll be returning soon
