East Kentucky Home - The Steeldrivers

Written by：Chris Stapleton/Mike Henderson

Been up and down this lonesome highway

Coast to coast and back again

I just had to do things my way

Had to go against the wind

Cause I've been dreaming of the 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 risin'

Feel the wind out in the pines

See the way I left her cryin'

Every time I close my eyes

Cause I've been dreaming of the 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 the 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
