Lyrics

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
