Everything Is Blue In Kentucky

We watched the moon rise,
We watched the sun set.
The mountain was casting
It’s long silhouette
‘Cross the pines and the poplars
That have stood for so long.
A bluebird sang out,
I answered
Her call.

Everything is blue in Kentucky,
Blue, as far as I can see
Yes everything is blue in Kentucky,
The moon, the mountain, and me.

A dark fog rolled in
Covering the mountain
In blankets of mist,
The moon, it was hidin’,
Making all the colors
Of life seem so strange.
The things that I thought
Were unchangeable,
Changed.

Everything is blue in Kentucky,
Blue, as far as I can see
Yes, everything is blue in Kentucky,
The moon, the mountain, and me.

The sky is now dark,
The moon’s behind clouds,
The mountain is cold
And draped in a shroud
The wind through the trees
Makes a mournful cry
‘Cause my bluebird has flown
To her home in
The sky.

Now everything is blue in Kentucky,
Blue, as far as I can see
Everything is blue in Kentucky,
The moon, the mountain, and me.

Oh, everything is blue in Kentucky,
The moon,
The mountain,
And me.
