Home Sweet Home I'm going back to Carrollton To see my friends once more My schoolmates, neighbors, classmates, and visit scenes of yore Just back in old Kentucky, The state where I was born The dear old Blue Grass region so pretty in the morn Where mother and father are buried just in sight of our home Where brother and sister were sheltered But now we have to roam Our dear old Kelly homestead," alas, it must be sold It was not built so stately, but to us "twas dear as gold. And now we are all scattered in the good Kentucky state Our weeping, too, is over and now we will meet our fate Martha Jane Kelly, July 7, 1921
