old kentucky home - unholy modal rounders lyrics

[intro]
randy newman

[verse 1]
take a little turpentine and a little dandelion wine
i’m turning the corner, i’m doin’ fine
i’m shootin’ at the birdies on the telephone line
pickin’ ’em off with this gun of mine
got a fire in a belly and there’s one in my head
gettin’ higher and higher ’til i’m dead

[chorus]
when the sun shines bright on my old kentucky home
and the young folks lyin’ on the floor
when the sun shines bright on my old kentucky home
keep them hard times away from my door

[verse 2]
my sister sue is short and stout
she didn’t grow up and she grew out
mama says she’s plain, but she’s just bein’ kind
papa thinks she’s pretty, but he’s d*mn near blind
and they don’t let her out much except at night
and i don’t care, i seem to be alright

[chorus]
when the sun shines bright on my old kentucky home
and the young folks rollin’ on the floor
when the sun shines bright on my old kentucky home
keep them hard times away from my door
[verse 3]
oh, my brother gene, he’s big and mean
and he ain’t got much to say
he had a little woman that he whooped each day
and now she’s gone away
i got myself drunk last night, threw mama down the stairs
i’m alright and i don’t care

[chorus]
when the sun shines bright on my old kentucky home
and the young folks rollin’ on the floor (on the floor)
when the sun shines bright on my old kentucky home
keep them hard times away from my—
universe of home, there’s no place like home
