My Old Kentucky Home (Turpentine & Dandelion Wine)

Ry Cooder

Turpentine and dandelion wine 
I've turned the corner and I'm doing fine 
Shooting at the birds on the telephone line 
Picking 'em off with this gun of mine 
I got a fire in my belly and a fire in my head 
Going higher and higher till I'm dead 

Sister Sue, short and stout 
She didn't grow up - she grew out 
Papa says she's plain but she's just being kind 
Mama says she's pretty but she's almost blind 
Don't let her out much 'cept at night 
But I don't care 'cause I'm all right 

Oh, the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home 
And the young folks roll on the floor 
Oh, the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home 
Keep them hard times away from my door 

Brother Gene, he's big and mean 
And he didn't have much to say 
He had a little woman that he whupped each day 
But now she's gone away 
He got drunk last night 
Kicked mama down the stairs 
But I'm all right so I don't care
