Excerpt from My Old Kentucky Home

Weep no more, my lady; Oh, weep no more today We will sing one song for the Old Kentucky Home, For the Old Kentucky Home far away.

They hunt no more for the possum and the coon On the meadow, the hill, and the shore; They sing no more, by the glimmer of the moon, On the bench by the Old cabin door.

The day goes by like a shadow o'er the heart, With sorrow where all was delight.
