My Old Kentucky Home<\/em><\/strong>
\nBy Stephen Foster<\/p>\n

The sun shines bright in the old Kentucky home,
\nTis summer, the people are gay;
\nThe corn-top’s ripe and the meadow’s in the bloom
\nWhile the birds make music all the day.
\nThe young folks roll on the little cabin floor
\nAll merry, all happy and bright;
\nBy’n by hard times comes a knocking at the door
\nThen my old Kentucky home, Good-night!
\nWeep no more my lady. Oh! Weep no more today!
\nWe will sing one song for my old Kentucky home
\nFor the old Kentucky home, far away.<\/p>\n
