And front porch people wearing a smile
I can see my Dad back home
Oh, how I hated to say goodbye to
Prettiest place I ever saw
Arkansas, land of opportunity
Prettiest place I ever saw
Prettiest place I ever saw
And they cover every mile of
Arkansas, oh, what you do to me
Arkansas, oh, what you do to me
Arkansas, land of opportunity
All those boyhood memories
Working Park County, sandy lawn
Arkansas, oh, what you do to me
Prettiest place I ever saw
Was back home in Arkansas
Except the houses that need repairing
Oh, how I wanna go once more to
Was back home in Arkansas
Arkansas, land of opportunity
Lakes and rivers and Backwood trees
Arkansas, oh, what you do to me
Mama callin' me from the door
Arkansas, land of opportunity
Was back home in Arkansas
Was back home in Arkansas
Dirt roads that lead nowhere
Prettiest place I ever saw
Gentle mountains, it reached to the sky
