Jimmie Rodgers - Roll Along Kentucky Moon Lyrics

Where are you old moon of Kentucky
There's somebody lonesome and blue
With nothing it seems but memories and dreams
Waiting to whisper to you

They have gone and here am I
Alone and you know why
Roll along roll along Kentucky moon
Shed a ray of light on one I love tonight
Roll along roll along Kentucky moon

You are watching on high
As we whisper goodbye
Twas a love dream that ended too soon
But wherever you may be go
Bring her back to me
Roll along roll along Kentucky moon

At dawn I find hopes come to cheer me
But twilight brings sorrow anew
And night time fins me here
The world sad and drear
Sending this message to you

They have gone and here am I
Alone and you know why
Roll along roll along Kentucky moon
Shed a ray of light on one I love tonight
Roll along roll along Kentucky moon

You are watching on high
As we whisper goodbye
Twas a love dream that ended too soon
But wherever you may be go
Bring her back to me
Roll along roll along Kentucky moon
