Old Kentucky Home Lyrics - Guilty: 30 Years Of Randy Newman - Randy Newman

Turpentine and dandylion wine 

I've turned the corner and I'm doin' fine 

Shootin' at the birds on the telephone line 

Pickin' 'em off with this gun o' mine 

I got a fire in my belly and a fire in my head 

Goin' higher and higher until I'm dead 

Sister Sue she's short and stout 

But she didn't grow up, she grew out 

Mama says she's plain, but she's just bein' kind 

Papa says she's pretty, but he's almost blind 

They don't let her out much, except at night 

But I don't care 'cause I'm alright

Oh the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home 

And the young folks roll on the floor 

Oh the sun shines bright on my old Kentuky home 

Keep them hard times away from my door 

Brother Gene he's big and mean 

And he don't have much to say 

He had a little woman who he whooped each day 

But now she's gona away 

Got drunk last night kicked Mama down the stair 

But I'm alright so I don't care

Oh the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home 

And the young folks roll on the floor 

Oh the sun shines bright on my old Kentuky home 

Keep them hard times away from my door
