Just a few long hours and I'll be in her arms

Where I belong and where I long to be

I can hear her voice she's calling me home

To her blue moon that shines for all to see

Yes I'm bringing me home to you why I left you's still a mystery

But it won't be long and soon you'll be with me

And soon you'll be by my side and I can walk with pride

Under wild Kentucky skies with the sunshine in my eyes

So shine on shine on me wild Kentucky skies

[ strings ]

Weep no more my lady weep no more today

For soon you will be with me I'm homeward bound homeward bound to stay

And soon you'll be by my side...

Shine on shine on me wild Kentucky skies

I love these wild Kentucky skies
