Bluegrass Songs - My rose of old Kentucky

My rose of old Kentucky

She bloomed for me near a little village
In a cabin on the hill
We made our vow we'd love each other
And I hope we always will

    She's my rose of old Kentucky
    I watched her bloom as the years rolled by
    And to me there will never be another
    I'll love her till the day I die

Oh, in dreams I see my darling
In a gingham dress she looks so sweet
Oh, how I long for old Kentucky
And my darling was more than real

  * Refrain

Oh, I know you often wondered
So I'll tell you the reason why
She is my rose of old Kentucky
And I know she will never lie

  * Refrain
