Lyrics

Kentucky

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

The night before your wedding,

I dreamed what i would say,

I'd beg you for forgiveness,

For all the mess i've made.

I dreamed that you were gracious,

I dreamed you wished me well,

I dreamed that you were vicious,

You damned me straihgt to hell.

Chorus

But, oh, sweet kentucky

No matter where i land

I was just a boy for you

And he will be your man.

I was just a boy for you

And he will be your man.

I'd tell you that i'm lonely,

And fame has let me down,

Living like a stranger,

Traveling town to town.

And all my aspirations,

Don't amount to much,

The wine and the women,

Are such a shameful crutch.

Chorus

I know you will be happy,

And i'll be in the band,

Cause i was just a boy for you,

And he will be your man.

And i was just a boy for you,

He will be your man...
