Old Kentucky (Kentucky Map Charm)
Lyrics
When it's reckoning time in old Kentucky
I ask myself if I'm feeling lucky
Will it be champagne or flat cold ducky?
The sun shines down on my old Kentucky charm
Had a dollar to win but I lost my head
Had a dollar to place, I forgot my map
Had a dollar to show but I stayed in bed
All that's in my pocket is my pocket flap
When it's reckoning time in the court of law
All I can summon is my monkey's paw
And all I'm asking is for a jury draw
The sun shines down on my old Kentucky charm
Had a line to walk but I walked it crooked
Had a rule to follow but I tried to lead it
I had a promise to keep but the devil took it
When it comes to losing I'm undefeated
When it's reckoning time at heaven's gate
I'll grin like I'm meeting my mystery date
Hope I can keep my story straight
Oh the sun shines down on my old Kentucky charm
Had a life to lead and I spent it all
Had a dream to catch and I let it go to heck
Had a hope in hell and I helped it fall
Now I'm done losing and I'm ready to collect
It's reckoning time in old Kentucky
When it's reckoning time in old Kentucky
I ask myself if I'm feeling lucky
Will it be champagne or flat cold ducky?
The sun shines down on my old Kentucky charm
Had a dollar to win but I lost my head
Had a dollar to place, I forgot my map
Had a dollar to show but I stayed in bed
All that's in my pocket is my pocket flap
When it's reckoning time in the court of law
All I can summon is my monkey's paw
And all I'm asking is for a jury draw
The sun shines down on my old Kentucky charm
Had a line to walk but I walked it crooked
Had a rule to follow but I tried to lead it
I had a promise to keep but the devil took it
When it comes to losing I'm undefeated
When it's reckoning time at heaven's gate
I'll grin like I'm meeting my mystery date
Hope I can keep my story straight
Oh the sun shines down on my old Kentucky charm
Had a life to lead and I spent it all
Had a dream to catch and I let it go to heck
Had a hope in hell and I helped it fall
Now I'm done losing and I'm ready to collect
It's reckoning time in old Kentucky
