  • 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.

    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.
