Missouri
Where Mark Twain told the stories
Of Huckleberry Finn
Runnin round in those hills
I grew up in
Where the bluebirds fly
That taught me how to sing
And if you can't show me
It doesn't mean a thing
In Missouri
It's home to Harry S. Truman
And the Pony Express
That St. Louis arch
The Gateway to the West
It's where Albert E. Brumley
Wrote "I'll Fly Away"
Down by Big Sugar Creek
Where everybody goes to play
In Missouri
So sweet those flowers
On the dogwood trees
When I go home
You'll find me
In Missouri
That Kansas City BarBQ
I could eat my fill
Hear those sounds out of Branson
Echo through the hills
Back to Silver Dollar City
For a step back in time
All of this and so much more
In that home state of mine
Of Missouri
So sweet those flowers
On the dogwood trees
When I go home
You'll find me
In Missouri
Rhonda Vincent - I'm a Missouri girl
Tried and true
My souls on Sally Mountain
And my grass is blue
Martha White on the Opry
And my heart swells with pride
Cause when I'm introduced
They'll say that I'm
From Missouri
So sweet those flowers
On the dogwood trees
When I go home
You'll find me
In Missouri
Of Huckleberry Finn
Runnin round in those hills
I grew up in
Where the bluebirds fly
That taught me how to sing
And if you can't show me
It doesn't mean a thing
In Missouri
It's home to Harry S. Truman
And the Pony Express
That St. Louis arch
The Gateway to the West
It's where Albert E. Brumley
Wrote "I'll Fly Away"
Down by Big Sugar Creek
Where everybody goes to play
In Missouri
So sweet those flowers
On the dogwood trees
When I go home
You'll find me
In Missouri
That Kansas City BarBQ
I could eat my fill
Hear those sounds out of Branson
Echo through the hills
Back to Silver Dollar City
For a step back in time
All of this and so much more
In that home state of mine
Of Missouri
So sweet those flowers
On the dogwood trees
When I go home
You'll find me
In Missouri
Rhonda Vincent - I'm a Missouri girl
Tried and true
My souls on Sally Mountain
And my grass is blue
Martha White on the Opry
And my heart swells with pride
Cause when I'm introduced
They'll say that I'm
From Missouri
So sweet those flowers
On the dogwood trees
When I go home
You'll find me
In Missouri
