Oh, the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home. The summer, the old folks are gay. Where the corn tops ripe and the meadows in the bloom, while the birds make music all the day. Weep no more. Oh, weep no more today. We will sing one song for my old Kentucky home, for my old Kentucky home far away. Where the young folks roll all around the cabin floor, they're merry, all happy and bright. By and by, our troubles will be o'er. Better times will come knocking at the door than my old Kentucky home. Good night. Weave no more, my lady. Oh, weave no more today. We will sing one song for my old Kentucky home, for my old Kentucky home far away. Weave no more, my lady. Oh, weave no more today. We'll sing one song for my old Kentucky home. For my old Kentucky home far away. For my old Kentucky home far away.
