Jimmy Dean "Kentucky Means Paradise" |
(Merle Travis) Now a lot of words have spelled the same with a different meanin' you see But here's a brand new way to spell heaven and accordin' to me You take a K and an E and an N and a T and U C K Y That spells Kentucky but it means paradise. You take a chicken and you kill it And you throw it in the skillet And you fry up a golden brown That's southern cookin' taste mighty fine. It don't cover a lot when you look on a map But I once studied geography When I was sattin' on my mama's lap You take K E N T U C K Y that spells Kentucky but it means paradise. --- Instrumental --- It don't cover a lot when you look on a map But I once studied geography When I was sattin' on my mama's lap You take K E N T U C K Y that spells Kentucky but it means paradise. Yes, that spells Kentucky but it means paradise... Lyric from www.lyricmania.com |
