She bloomed for me near a little village
In a cabin on the hill
We made our vows, we'd love each other
And I know we always will
She's my rose of old Kentucky
I watched her bloom as the years rolled by
And to me, there'll never be another
I'll love her till the day I die
Oh, in dreams, I see my darling
In a gingham dress, she looks so sweet
Oh, I long for old Kentucky
And my darling was more to me
She's my rose of old Kentucky
I watched her bloom as the years rolled by
And to me, there'll never be another
I'll love her till the day I die
Oh, I know, you often wonder
So I'll tell you the reason why
She's my rose of old Kentucky
And I know she'll never lie
She's my rose of old Kentucky
I watched her bloom as the years rolled by
And to me, there'll never be another
I'll love her till the day I die
