I'm Old Kentucky Bound Lyrics - Bill Monroe

I'm old Kentucky bound 

Some where among the hills of old Kentucky 

There's two old folks I love with all my heart 

They're praying for their boy to come back safely 

And never no more from them depart 

There's a little sweetheart waiting for her darling 

With her heart all filled with love divine 

I long to hold her in my arms and kiss her 

For tonight I'm old Kentucky bound 

In summer when the birds are singing sweetly 

And pretty flowers blooming all around 

I long to climb that dear old rocky mountain 

For tonight I'm old Kentucky bound
