Steeldrivers - East Kentucky Home lyrics

Been up and down this lonesome highway Coast to coast and back again 'Cause I just had to do things my way Had to go against the wind 'Cause I've been dreaming of a girl I left behind Lord, she had the truest heart I've ever known And I've been looking for a world I'll never find Ever since I left my East Kentucky Home I can smell the wood smoke rising Feel the wind out in the pines See the way I left her crying Every time I close my eyes I've been dreaming of a girl I left behind Lord, she had the truest heart I've ever known And I've been looking for a world I'll never find Ever since I left my East Kentucky Home Think I'll get up with the sunrise Think I'll pack my things and go It's taken me this long to realize The only thing I need to know 'Cause I've been dreaming of a girl I left behind Lord, she had the truest heart I've ever known And I've been looking for a world I'll never find Ever since I left my East Kentucky Home Ever since I left my East Kentucky Home
