Old Kentucky Home - My Turpentine & Dandelion Wine Live Version

Lyrics

Turpentine and dandelion wine
 I've turned the corner and I'm doin' fine
 Shootin' at the birds on the telephone line
 Pickin' 'em off with this gun of mine
 I got a fire in my belly
 And a fire in my head
 Goin' higher and higher
 Until I'm dead
 Sister Sue, she's short and stout
 She didn't grow up, she grew out
 Mama says she's plain but she's just bein' kind
 Papa thinks she's pretty but he'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 don't have much to say
 He had a little woman who 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
