It's Got To Be Kentucky For Me Lyrics

Tom T. Hall It's Got To Be Kentucky For Me

Georgia, I love your big magnolia trees
Texas, I love to feel the prairie breeze
Tennessee, you made me what I am today
But it's got to be Kentucky for me

She loves me and she knows where I am
Kentucky you are my motherland
Say hello to the rivers and the trees
Oh, it's got to be Kentucky for me

New York that's a fine place to go Colorado
My it's pretty, covered with the snow
California sunshine just brings me to my knees
Oh, but it's got to be Kentucky for me

My flesh and my blood is buried there
I believe that Jesus blessed the brier
Big world I have seen your majesty
But it's got to be Kentucky for me
Oh, it's got to be Kentucky for me
