Blue Kentucky Girl - Emmylou Harris

(Johnny Mullins)

You left me for the bright lights of the town 
A country boy set out to see the world 
Remember when those neon lights shine down 
That big old moon shines on your Kentucky girl 

I swear I love you by the moon above you 
How bright is it shining in your world 
Some morning when you wake up all alone 
Just come on home to your blue Kentucky girl 

Don't wait to bring great riches home to me 
I need no diamond rings or fancy pearls 
Just bring yourself, you're all I'll ever need 
That's good enough for this blue Kentucky girl 

I swear I love you by the moon above you 
How bright is it shining in your world 
Some morning when you wake up all alone 
Just come on home to your blue Kentucky girl 
Just come on home to your blue Kentucky girl
