There's a beautiful moon shining down on Kentucky
Where the fields of bluegrass are growin'
Neath the beautiful moon shining down on Kentucky
Tomorrow that's where I'll be going

For the girl that I love she waits for me I know
To return from ole sunny Tennessee
Neath the beautiful moon shining down on Kentucky
Tomorrow that's where I will be

Well, I left my old home way down in Kentucky
And headed for old sunny Tennessee
But I'm on my way back to the hills of Kentucky
With my darling once more there I'll be

* Refrain
