Kentucky Lyrics


The night before your wedding
I dreamed what I would say
I'd beg you for forgiveness
For all the mess I've madeI dreamed that you were gracious
I dreamed you wished me well
I dreamed that you were vicious
You damned me straight to HellBut, oh sweet Kentucky no matter where I land
I was just a boy for you and he will be your man
I was just a boy for you and he will be your manI'd tell you that I'm lonely
And fame has let me down
Living like a stranger
Traveling town to townAnd all my aspirations
Don't amount to much
The wine and the women
Are such a shameful crutchBut, oh sweet Kentucky no matter where I land
'Cause I was just a boy for you and he will be your man
And I was just a boy for you and he will be your manI know you will be happy and I'll be in the band
'Cause I was just a boy for you and he will be your man

And I was just a boy for you and he will be your man

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Green Day front man and Grammy Award winning artist Billie Joe Armstrong and Grammy Award winning singer and songwriter Norah Jones team up for "Foreverly", an unforgettable collection inspired by "Songs Our Daddy Taught Us", an album of traditional Americana songs reinterpreted, recorded and released by The Everly Brothers in 1958.

The album captures the beauty of the Everly's stunning close harmonies to create a moving and powerful testament to these traditional ballads. The album is set for release on 25 November 2013 in the United States and worldwide.

The album features reinterpreted versions of traditional songs like “Down in the Willow Garden” and the the often-covered “Barbara Allen” next to country classics like Karl Davis’ “Kentucky.” In a press release, Armstrong (a longtime Everly Brothers fan) says the project originated after he discovered Songs Our Daddy Taught Us a couple years ago.
