Won't forget the first time that I saw him I overheard somebody say Kentucky was his name He just stood there unconcerned and sang though the angels were all listenin' Now I was passin' through on my way for some long forgotten place I only planned to got away a lost and lonely Texas winter evening But I found myself a wishin' I could stay and listen to Kentucky sing Won't you sing that song again Kentucky Don't you mind I sing along with you And I'll be on my way again Kentucky Everytime I hear that song I get to think of you Everything has changed since that Texas winter nights a long ago The dreams that I was dreamin' there finally become reality Now we just go from town to town and we laugh and sing every song we know Life was good to me and my Kentucky So let's sing that song again Kentucky Let's sing it loud Kentucky I love you And I'll never go away from you Kentucky Everytime I hear that song I get to reach and touch you
