I'm Old Kentucky Bound

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
