In a little mountain village
Excitement filled the air
The children were rehearsing
For the Christmas play that year
Momma's brand new bedsheet
Would be an angel's robe
Some bailing wire and tinsel
Sure made a great halo

Kentucky Christmas
Those precious memories that I hold so dear
That special birthday
Our families would come from far and near
For a season
We'd put all our troubles in the past
Kentucky Christmas
The only blue you found thеre was the grass

In church on Sunday morning
We'd rеminisce again
The reason for the season
God's precious gift to men
Then dinner would be waiting
We'd gather for the feast
Then off to search the country
For the perfect Christmas tree
Kentucky Christmas
Those precious memories that I hold so dear
That special birthday
Our families would come from far and near
For a season
We'd put all our troubles in the past

The only blue you found there was the grass
