she was bred in old kentucky - george j. gaskin lyrics

Loading...

when a lad
i stood one day by a cottage far away,and to me that day
all nature seem’d more grand;
for my sue, with blushes red, had just promised we should wed
and i’d come to ask her mother for her hand

as i told the old, old tale
of a love that n’er would fail
the grayhaired mother stroked her daughter’s head
and i fancied i could trace just a tear on her kind face
as she placed my sweetheart’s hand in mine and said

she was bred in old kentucky
where the meadow grass is blue
there’s the sunshine of the country, in her face and manner too;
she was bred in old kentucky
take her boy, you’re mighty lucky
when you marry a girl like sue

many years have pass’d away since that well remember’d day
when to that dear old kentucky home i came;
and my happiness thro’ life, was my sweetheart friend and wife
for the sunshine in her heart remained the same

i am sitting all alone, in the place we’ve long called home
for yesterday my darling passed away;
tho’ in tears i think with joy of the day when but a oy
that i took her hand and heard her mother say
she was bred in old kentucky
where the meadow grass is blue
there’s the sunshine of the country, in her face and manner too;
she was bred in old kentucky
take her boy, you’re mighty lucky
when you marry a girl like sue
