Good one!

I somehow feel sad for an entire state to have to suffer for the "legacy" of one slime ball.

My sympathies to the people of Arkansas.

Heh heh! Now that you've insulted the good people of Ark by putting that slimeball on there do you have a picture of the real qurarter?

Arkansas
(You Run Deep in Me)
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 will never 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

 

Adopted by the 1987 General Assembly as an Official State Song.
As an aside, this guy's son works in Mark Pryor's office. I met him when I went to DC in September. Arkansans should pass along their thanks to his dad for the great song when they run across him.
