Arkansas
(You Run Deep in Me) Written by Wayland Holyfield |
|
||
October morning in the Ozark Mountains,
Hills ablazing like that sun in the sky. I fell in love there and the fire's still burning A flame that never will die. |
|||
Chorus
Oh, I may wander, but when I do I will never be far from you. You're in my blood and I know you'll always be. Arkansas, you run deep in me. Moonlight dancing on a delta levee, To a band of frogs and whippoorwill I lost my heart there one July evening And it's still there, I can tell. |
|||
Repeat Chorus
Magnolia blooming, Mama smiling, Mallards sailing on a December wind. God bless the memories I keep recalling Like an old familiar friend. |
|||
Repeat Chorus
And there's a river rambling through the fields and valleys, Smooth and steady as she makes her way south, A lot like the people whose name she carries. She goes strong and she goes proud.
Repeat Chorus
