"My Old Kentucky Home"
By Stephen Collins Foster, circa 1853 The sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home, Tis summer, the people are gay; The corn tops ripe and the meadow's in the bloom, While the birds make music all the day. The young folks roll on the little cabin floor, All merry, all happy and bright; By 'n' by hard times comes a-knockin at the door, Then my old Kentucky home, good-night! Weep no more, my lady! Oh weep no more today. We will sing one song for my old Kentucky home, For my old Kentucky home, far away. |
