MY HAPPY LITTLE HOME IN ARKANSAS Sung by: Mrs. W.L. Deal Recorded in Heber Springs, AR, 7/16/53 Click here to listen to the original recording Where the grass is ever green, And the streamlet from the Boston Mountains flow, Where the mockingbird doth sing; 'Til the grove with music rings, At my happy little home in Arkansas. Chorus: Come and see me, neighbors; come along. I'll be there to greet you and all. 'Tis the finest country found-- I will show you all around-- At my happy little home in Arkansas. We'll go out into the orchard Where the fruit is on the tree. 'Tis a land where famous peach and apples grow. They are luscious, mellow, sweet-- You may have all you can eat-- At my happy little home in Arkansas. (Chorus) We'll go hunting in the mountain, We will view the mineral springs, Go and see the big plantations down below. Show you cotton and the cane-- Show you every kind of grain-- At my happy little home in Arkansas. (Chorus) Also found in Randolph, Vol. IV, #868, "My Happy Little Home in Arkansas." |
