Kentucky Means Paradise

[Intro]
(Ah, listen to that sound)
You take a 'K', a 'E'
Then you add an 'N' and 'T'
A 'U', and a 'C' 'K' 'Y'
And that spells Kentucky
But it means paradise

[Verse 1]
You take a chicken and you kill it and you put it in a skillet
And you fry it up a-golden brown
That's Southern cookin'
And that's mighty nice

[Verse 2]
It don't cover a lot
When you look on a map
But I wasn't studyin' no geography
When I was sittin' in my mammy's lap

[Chorus]
You take a 'K' and a 'E', 'N' and a 'T'
'U' and a 'C' 'K' 'Y'
And that spells Kentucky
And it means paradise

[Verse 3]
Oh, it don't cover a lot
When you look on a map
But I wasn't studyin' no geography
When I was sittin' in my mammy's lap

[Chorus]
You take a 'K' and a 'E', a 'N' and a 'T'
And a 'U' and a 'C' 'K' 'Y'
And that spells Kentucky
And it means paradise

[Outro]
I said Kentucky
And it means paradise
