Run through the hills and run through the bushes
Take that ride down an ole dirt road
Gone to long from ole’ Kentucky
Slow down turn around I gotta go

I left my home
I left my truck
Take me back to ole’ Kentuck
First thing do, gonna take that ride
Where the grass is blue on the other side
The horses run and the moon it shines
You might say she’s my lady luck
Ole Kentuck
Take me back to ole’ Kentuck
Hills as black as coal
Take me back to ole’ Kentuck
There I’ll rest my soul

I’m gonna run my barefoot down to the water
Fish my cain pole all night thru
I got me a gal, wild and a waitin’
she’s so pretty, she’s so true

I left my home
I left my truck
Take me back to ole’ Kentuck
First thing do, gonna take that ride
Where the grass is blue on the other side
The horses run and the moon it shines
You might say she’s my lady luck
Ole Kentuck
Take me back to ole’ Kentuck
Hills as black as coal
Take me back to ole’ Kentuck
There I’ll rest my soul

I left my home
I left my truck
Take me back to ole’ Kentuck
First thing do, gonna take that ride
Where the grass is blue on the other side
The horses run and the moon it shines
You might say she’s my lady luck
Ole Kentuck
Take me back to ole’ Kentuck
Hills as black as coal
Take me back to ole’ Kentuck
There I’ll rest my soul
