Kentucky Means Paradise
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 nice
It don't cover a lot when you look on a map
But I once studied geography when I sat in my mama's lap
You take K E N T U C K Y that spells Kentucky but it means paradise
[ harmonica - guitar ]
It don't cover a lot...
Yes that spells Kentucky but it means paradise
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 nice
It don't cover a lot when you look on a map
But I once studied geography when I sat in my mama's lap
You take K E N T U C K Y that spells Kentucky but it means paradise
[ harmonica - guitar ]
It don't cover a lot...
Yes that spells Kentucky but it means paradise
