about

By Keith Anderson (Union City All Stars).

lyrics

Well I lived in the same house in Kentucky for 23 years
I was born there and I was raised there
Unlike the others, bred from fear

And I'm not going back
No I'm never going back
Once I leave
If I ever leave
Old Kentucky

Well my mother she was born here
She was raised right outside of town
and my father he was born here
He was raised in that dark and bloody ground

And I'm not going back
No I'm never going back
Once I leave
If I ever leave
Old Kentucky

I've got aunts I've got uncles
I've got 33 cousins
and I've got grandmothers too (two)
I've got chores and I've got time
and these hands they should be mine
but they still
belong to you

And I'm not going back
No I'm never going back
Once I leave
If I ever leave
Old Kentucky
