Well, tonight, we′re in another big ol' city
The stage is nice, the lights shine bright
and these girls are pretty
Somehow I still feel all alone
Got a sold-out crowd, and this place is loud
but it sure ain′t home

I traveled many miles down 33
Made my way up and down the backroads of Tennessee
Virginia, I've been through a time or three
But that's not the place that′s always calling me

Oh, Kentucky, can you hear me?
I′m singing softly while I weep
Tears are falling, I've been calling
Oh, Kentucky, can′t you hear me?

I packed my bags for another show
sometimes I hate to up and leave
It's nice to have Mom and Dad so close
′cause everyday, they're getting old you see
But I know God has got a plan
take me back to the promised land

Oh, Kentucky, can you hear me?
I′m singing softly while I weep
Tears are falling, I've been calling
Oh, Kentucky, can't you hear me?

Oh, Kentucky, can you hear me?
I′m singing softly while I weep
Tears are falling, I′ve been calling
Oh, Kentucky, can't you hear me?
