Oh Kristie Rae
How are you, my love?
And how is Kentucky?
Well, I didn’t have the guts
To tell you we were done
So I just ran away
Oh Kristie Rae
Well your mother was a drunk
All the while we were growing up
Seemed like you were always in her way
She was mean or she was sober
Jealous of her only daughter
You could never hide
When she saw your father in your eyes
Oh Kristie Rae
How are you, my love?
And how is Kentucky?
Well, I didn’t have the guts
To tell you we were done
So I just ran away
Oh Kristie Rae
On a winter morning
Blinded by the white
Sun had scorched the starless night
And burned a hole into our lives
I said «Home is Indiana
«And I will meet you there»
But you were met by William
And I had disappeared
Oh Kristie Rae
How are you, my love?
And how is Kentucky?
Well, I didn’t have the guts
To tell you we were done
So I just ran away
Oh Kristie
Oh Kristie Rae
How are you, my love?
And how is Kentucky?
Well, I didn’t have the guts
To tell you we were done
So I just ran away
Oh Kristie
Oh Kristie Rae
Oh Kristie Rae
How are you, my love?
