Kentucky Means Paradise
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.
You take a K and a E N and a T U and a C K Y
And that spells KENTUCKY and it means paradise
You take a chicken and you kill it and you put it in the skillet
And you fry up a golden brown
That's southern cookin' and that's mighty nice
It don't cover lot when you look on a map
But I once studied geography when I sat in my mama's lap
You take a K and a E N and a T U and a C K Y
And that spells KENTUCKY and it means paradise
[ dobro ]
It don't cover lot...
[ banjo ]
It don't cover lot...
I said Kentucky and it means paradise
