lyrics

Wish I was in Kentucky
Where the fellows are so fine
And I would be so lucky
To make one of them mine.
He got hair of brown and eyes of green
And the prettiest smile I’ve ever seen
And he pick a banjo oh-so mean
He’s my Kentucky Boy.

Don’t know too much about him
But I liked everything I learned
Don’t want to live without him
Yeah, he makes my candle burn.
He got tattoos crawling up his arm
And we lay in bed, he kept me warm
But he’s leaving now to find a farm
He’s my Kentucky Boy.

And I only knew him for a day
I kissed him and I wished he’d stay
With me, but he had to move on.
Well I fell so fast and felt so free
I wonder if he thinks of me
Like I do now that he’s gone.

Don’t care what people tell me
Don’t care what people say
From the tender way he held me
I know we’ll meet again some day.
For the night we spent I’m not ashamed
I can feel him pulsing in my veins
Every time I hear the blessed name of
My Kentucky Boy.
