Lyrics
Chorus:
Tell all the folks down at home in Kentucky
That I’m comin’
Say that a lonely old rollin’ stone
Wants to come home
And don’t forget to tell those darkies
To keep their banjos strummin’
I’d like to have them welcome me
With a Dixie Melody
Oh, how I long to be back in Kentucky
With my mammy
Oh, how I wish that I never had started to roam
I feel so blue I could almost cry
Here comes your train, Goodbye
Tell all the folks down at home in Kentucky
That I’m comin’ home
