Kentucky girl are you lonesome tonight

Kentucky girl do you miss me

Does that old moon shine on the bluegrass as bright

As it did on the night you first kissed me

In a valley 'neath the mountains so high

The sweetest place in all the world

In a cabin with the vines o'er the door

That's where I left my Kentucky girl

I'm far away from old Kentucky tonight

And the blue eyed girl that I love so

But I'm heading home in the silvery moonlight

With open arms she waits I know
