Kentucky Lake

Scott Whitby, 2022


Kentucky Lake you ain't no more

With your thousand miles of shore

You ain't what you used to be

Kentucky Lake you ain't no more


In the early morning dawn

Fishin' bushes now long gone

No cane poles just spider rigs

Nobody knows when the crappie spawn


At the ramp they say how'd you do

Was it minners what'd you use

You sure filled that cooler full

Fish to clean for an hour or two


Tomorrow morning we'll do it again

Fish the bushes at the gravel pit

Power lines too far away

Fish might not bite you must admit


Kentucky Lake you ain't no more

With your thousand miles of shore

You ain't what you used to be

Kentucky Lake you ain't no more


Days are gone when boats slowed down

Wave and say see you around

Now they don't even look your way

They don't care if you even drown


Asian carp have found their way

To our lake from far away

Crappie barely have a chance

God help the TWRA


They want parks beaches and sand

They don't know it's already grand

We don't need your good advice

We don't need a better plan


Kentucky Lake will come back you see

More than just a memory

Kentucky Lake best days ahead

Kentucky Lake and you and me


Like the biscuits at Lilly Dee's

Kentucky Lake for you and me
