Verse 1
I’ve been counting days, I’ve been waiting all year long
Now summer’s here, and winter’s finally gone
I hang my business suit, put my worries down
I’m heading home today, Back to my hometown
Chorus
Summer is sweeter
In Kentucky
How’d we get to be so lucky
Life is better in the country
You can’t buy it with money
Summer is sweeter in Kentucky
Verse 2
Friends pull up a log and gather ‘round the fire
Someone pulls out a guitar
We sing and laugh, no one gets tired
The party is lit by the twinkling of the stars
Verse 3
A sweet breeze flows thru the air
There is magic everywhere
A friend throws me a beer
It’s the best time of year
Chorus
Summer is sweeter
In Kentucky
How’d we get to be so lucky
Life is better in the country
You can’t buy it with money
Summer is sweeter in Kentucky
Verse 4
When I was young I couldn’t wait to be on my own
But You don’t know what you’ve got until it’s gone
My hometown is where I belong
Verse 5
There’s rarely a cloud in the sky
Our laughter gives us a Kentucky high
No one ever has to say goodbye
Chorus
Summer is sweeter
In Kentucky
How’d we get to be so lucky
Life is better in the country
You can’t buy it with money
Summer is sweeter in Kentucky
