My Old Kentucky Home (Turpentine And Dandelion) lyrics
Turpentine and dandelion wine
I've turned the corner and I'm doing fine
Shootin' at the birds on the telephone line
Pickin' 'em off with this gun of mine
Got a fire in my belly and a fire in my head
Goin' higher and higher till I'm dead
Sister Sue is short and stout
She didn't grow up she grew out
Mama says she's plain but she's just bein' kind
Papa thinks she's pretty but he's almost blind
Don't let her out much 'cept at night
But I don't care cause I'm alright
Oh the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home
Young folks roll on the floor
Oh the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home
Keep them hard times away from my door
Brother Gene is big and mean
And don't have much to say
He had a little woman who he whooped each day
Now she's gone away
Got drunk last night kicked mama down the stairs
But I'm all right so I don't care
Oh the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home
And the young folks are rollin' on the floor
Oh the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home
Them hard times away from my door
Turpentine and dandelion wine
I've turned the corner and I'm doing fine
Shootin' at the birds on the telephone line
Pickin' 'em off with this gun of mine
Got a fire in my belly and a fire in my head
Goin' higher and higher till I'm dead
Oh the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home
Young folks roll on the floor
Oh the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home
Keep them hard times away from my door
Keep them hard times away from my door
I've turned the corner and I'm doing fine
Shootin' at the birds on the telephone line
Pickin' 'em off with this gun of mine
Got a fire in my belly and a fire in my head
Goin' higher and higher till I'm dead
Sister Sue is short and stout
She didn't grow up she grew out
Mama says she's plain but she's just bein' kind
Papa thinks she's pretty but he's almost blind
Don't let her out much 'cept at night
But I don't care cause I'm alright
Oh the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home
Young folks roll on the floor
Oh the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home
Keep them hard times away from my door
Brother Gene is big and mean
And don't have much to say
He had a little woman who he whooped each day
Now she's gone away
Got drunk last night kicked mama down the stairs
But I'm all right so I don't care
Oh the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home
And the young folks are rollin' on the floor
Oh the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home
Them hard times away from my door
Turpentine and dandelion wine
I've turned the corner and I'm doing fine
Shootin' at the birds on the telephone line
Pickin' 'em off with this gun of mine
Got a fire in my belly and a fire in my head
Goin' higher and higher till I'm dead
Oh the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home
Young folks roll on the floor
Oh the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home
Keep them hard times away from my door
Keep them hard times away from my door
