The Everly Brothers
"Bowling Green"


Way down in Bowling Green
The prettiest girls I've ever seen
A man in Kentucky sure is lucky
To live down in Bowling Green

Bowling Green folks treat you kind
They let you think you're all mine
A man in Kentucky sure is lucky
In Bowling Green you walk your own mind

Kentucky sunshine makes the heart unfold
It warms the body, & I know it touches the soul
Bluegrass is fine, Kentucky owns my mind

The fields down in Bowling Green
Have the softest grass I've ever seen
A man in Kentucky sure is lucky
To lie down in Bowling Green

Bowling Green girls treat you right
They wear dresses cut country tight
A man in Kentucky sure is lucky
If he's seen the Bowling Green light
Kentucky sunshine makes the heart unfold
It warms the body, & I know it touches the soul
Bluegrass is fine, Kentucky owns my mind
