East Kentucky Lady

I've been away
Doin' all the things they told us not to do
But that didn't change the way you look at me
I wonder why

In not too long
I'll take this pickup truck just as far as she can run
Just so I can see your face once again
But 'til then

My East Kentucky lady
Won't you shine your light on over me?
Oh, maybe, my baby
You'll take me back where I wanna be

That East Kentucky ground
Those East Kentucky hills
My Appalachian girl callin' me home

Some folks would say
That our lives would be better off this way
But my heart ain't in the thrills and the ways
Of a lonely city

As sure as the sun
There isn't anyone I love as much as you
So I'll be comin' home certainly
As soon as I get the chance to run
'Til that time comes

My East Kentucky lady
Won't you shine your light on over me?
Oh, maybe, my baby
You'll take me back where I wanna be (where I wanna be)

That East Kentucky ground
Those East Kentucky hills
My Appalachian girl callin' me home

East Kentucky lady
Won't you shine your light on over me?
Oh, maybe, my baby
You'll take me back where I wanna be (where I wanna be)

That East Kentucky ground
Those East Kentucky hills
My Appalachian girl callin' me home

Hey, I'm comin' home
I'm comin' home to you
My East Kentucky lady
