[Verse]
In northern land, lost and lonesome
Crowds walk by as he stands still
Hey mountain boy, up in the flatlands
Misses his darling back in the hills

[Verse]
Now not a word as they passed me
Not a sign there's anyone home
Just making steps towards the next one
All the while time keeps ticking on

[Chorus]
Oh take me back to Kentucky
Let me sleep in her loving arms
Let me watch that fading ridgeline
Let me die where I was born

[Verse]
Too damn cold for only blue jeans
Too damn cold in my bed
In my dreams, you're right next to me
But I wake up feeling frigid and dead

[Chorus]
Take me back to Kentucky
Let me sleep in her loving arms
Let me watch that fading ridgeline
Let me die where I was born

[Verse]
Some day soon, it'll be my last one
In my rocking chair, and best bourbon
Face me west out on the front porch
I'll fade out with the sun

[Chorus]
Take me back to Kentucky
Let me sleep in her loving arms
Let me watch that fading ridgeline
Let me die where I was born
