lyrics

Put something pretty on, twirly and give me one minute to grab my red boots
The city’s been killin’ me, no longer fulfillin’ me
at least that’s my latest excuse

Let’s take a chance, take a pause for a dance, your boots
look like they need breakin’ in.
Hands on my shoulders, just listen, take hold of the
banjos and old violins.


I’ll take you home to Kentucky tonight
We’ll dance and maybe get lucky tonight
and we’ll think not a minute of trouble or plights
we’re just Waltzing Kentucky tonight.

Don’t need to leave the room, eyes and we’ll be there
together we’ve got all we need
songs made of mandolins, bluegrass, and good bourbon,
playin’ for just you and me

We’ll waltz through blue highways, dance backwards and sideways
make up the words as we go
dreamin’ of far away, back in the bluegrass state/
moonlight and ol’ bill monroe

I’ll take you home to Kentucky tonight
We’ll dance and maybe get lucky tonight
and we’ll think not a minute of trouble or plights
we’re just Waltzing Kentucky tonight.
