The sun shines bright on the old Ken - tuck -y home, 'Tis sum - mer, the peo - ple are gay;
The corn - top's ripe and the mead - ow's in the bloom, While the birds make mu - sic all the day;
Weep no more, my la - dy, Oh! weep no more to - day!
We will sing one song for the old Ken - tuck - y home, For the old Ken - tuck - y home, far a - way.
