Hills of Kentucky Lyrics

Hills Of Kentucky - Open E Guitar Tuning, E Harmonica, D2 Mandolin

V1: There's an old run down cabin in the Hills of Kentucky

Where my parents and kinfolk still lay

I go back when I can … and I sure do feel lucky

just to sit on that front porch and play

Chorus: Don't take me away … but I know I can't stay

Revenuers come looking for me

When I get back I know, there be nothing to show

In the Hollers where no one can see

V2: All my memories rush back from those Hills of Kentucky

It's the last place on Earth to be free `

Moonshine, good times and my old coonhound Bucky's

bout all's ever mattered to me

Chorus … then Harmonica and Mandolin lead break

V3: Don't everyone care bout those Hills of Kentucky

With beauty comes danger and fear

Every time that I leave my old Hills of Kentucky

My eyes they just fill up with tears

Chorus

tag - Ole Raylan's got nothin on me
