Where are you old moon of Kentucky there's somebody lonesome and blue
  We're nothing it seems but mem'ries and dreams waiting to whisper to you
  Day is done and here am I alone and you know why
  Roll along roll along Kentucky moon
  Shed a ray of silver light on one I love tonight
  Roll along roll along Kentucky moon
  You were watching on high when she whispered goodbye
  Twas our love dreams that ended too soon
  But wherever she may be go bring her back to me
  Roll along roll along Kentucky moon
  
  At dawning fond hopes come to cheer me but twilight brings sorrows and you
  The night finds me yearn the world outside burn sending this message to you
  Day is done and here am I...
