Never been anywhere
South of the Delaware
Never been through Kahalamazoo
Never been to Timbuktu
Living is fanasy
Travelling mentally
Making up tunes in hotel rooms
'bout places I've never been to
Though I've never cruised under a Kentucky Moon
I have my dream Kentucky Moon
But it's all imitary
From songs, films and TV
But I can visualise what I've never seen
I have my dream Kentucky Moon.
Route 66 to me is still a mystery
And Ohio, too
Went Chicago blue down to St. Louie blues
Never been anywhere south of the Delaware
Never been through Kalamazu
Never been to Timbuktu
But I can visualize what I've never seen
So I sit and dream, Kentucky moon
As I sit by a while I sleep in my room
But it's just imagery
From songs, films and TV
But I can visualize what I've never seen
So I sit and dream, Kentucky moon
