Leftover Salmon - Blue Kentucky Sky Somebody asked me if I'd been to old Kentucky If I'd seen the green hills in the early morning light I just laughed and smiled, said you know that I've been lucky I've got visions of Kentucky, in every corner of my mind. I fust saw Kentucky when I was seventeen And I hitchhiked out of Pittsburg chasing bluegrass dreams I went to my first festival and drank a little shine Watching Bill Monroe sing the Walls of Time And them green Kentucky hills Rollin to the sky Ripplin waters flowin Under that Moonshine Been around the World But I've never rest my eyes On a place as sweet as home Under Blue Kentucky Skies On a place as sweet as home Under Blue Kentucky Sky Well I've lived a life I've been up and I've been down I have lived on porches and slept out on the ground Well I've hung around mansions and all that I've found That there's nothing ike a cabin in that Old Kentucky ground Chorus Jam (verse and Chorus) Well I go back to Kentucky just to play this old guitar That's how I make my livin now, singing in these bars But no matter how far I travel these days, no matter how far I've got visions of Kentucky shining like a star Chorus
