Kentucky Babe Lyrics - Eddy Arnold

(Close your eyes close your eyes in sleep) 

Skeeters am a hummin' on honeysuckle vine sleep Kentucky babe 

Sandman am a comin' to this little boy of mine sleep Kentucky babe 

Silvery moon am shining in the heavens up above 

Bubblelink am pining for his little lady love 

You is mighty lucky babe of old Kentucky close your eyes in sleep 

Fly away fly away Kentucky babe fly away to rest fly away 

Lay your little pearly head on your mommy's breast mhmm 

Close your eyes in sleep (Kentucky sleep Kentucky babe)
