The sun shines bright in the old Ken-tuck-y home.
'tis sum-mer 'n ev'ryone's gay..
The corn top's ripe
and the mea-dow's in the bloom,
While the birds makin' mus-ic all the day.
The young folk roll on the lit-tle cab-in floor.
All mer-cy all hap-py and bright.
By'n by hard times come a knock-in' at the door.
Then my old Ken-tuck-y home, good night.
Weep no more my la-dy, oh, weep no more to-day.
We will sing one song of my old Ken-tuck-y home,
For the old Ken-tuck-y home far a-way.
