Текст песни On The Old Kentucky Shore (Bill Monroe) с переводом

I walked out to the graveyard

Down by the Church of God

I looked upon the one I love

That would soon be covered with sod

Up along the Ohio River

Over on the old Kentucky shore

Once dwelled a fair young maiden

Now there’s a crepe upon her door

The angels took my darling

God needed the one I loved

I reached the old Kentucky shore today

I’ll make my plans and meet her up above

The last words that my darling said

Was tell the one I love goodbye

I would like to see him before I go

But I’ll meet him in the sky
