State Song of Arkansas - Arkansas (You Run Deep in Me)

One of the state songs of Arkansas, The Natural State.
Lyrics in English:
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.
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.
Magnolia blooming, Mama smiling,
Mallards sailing on a December wind.
God bless the memories I keep recalling
Like an old familiar friend.
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.
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.

Cody, you damn crazy bastard, it does sound like a true old school truck commercial.

What a beautiful song! Wayland Holyfield should write and "sing" a song for America. Not for Republicans or Democrats, but FOR EVERYONE, for All of US!!!🙏

[@theillationgroup1328]

Greetings to Arkansas, from your neighbor to the north, Missouri.
While I can't see myself living in your state, at least at the moment, I'd love to visit one day. (That also applies to like 75% of other states, so don't take what I said the wrong way. No one state checks all my boxes.)
I really want to see Crater of Diamonds State Park, but that's like a 7hr drive. 💀The farthest I've ever been from home is a 3.5hr drive.

[@ericktorres3122]

Man as someone from Arkansas, I appreciate the compliment but I never see myself living in Missouri lol. I would love to visit St.Louis though

My family moved to Arkansas from Tennessee in 1828. But a hundred years later we moved across the White River into Missouri. Still not far from Arkansas, though.

[@Varan2]

You are not more than 195 years old since you say you moved in 1828

[@Varan2]

My bad didn’t know you were talking about your relatives
