The Petersens - My Ozark Mountain Home lyrics

Artist: The Petersens

album: My Ozark Mountain Home


Well, the Colorado aspens
Are blowin' in the wind
And the California redwoods
Grow so high they never bend
And when the sun sets over Kansas
It may never ever end
But as I watch the sun go down
My heart longs to hear once again
How the whippoorwill is callin' me
To the place I long to go
Where the hills roll through the valleys
Down into the Buffalo
Slow and steady are the voices
That I hear whene'er I roam
They remind me of where I come from
My Ozark mountain home
From the dogwoods in the springtime
To the whitetail in the fall
The neighbors on the front porch
Just in case I come to call
Mom and dad live down the dirt road
Oh I've missed them most of all
I think it's time to quit my wanderin'
And go back, back where I belong
Where the whippoorwill is callin' me
To the place I long to go
Where the hills roll through the valleys
Down into the Buffalo
Slow and steady are the voices
That I hear whene'er I roam
They remind me of where I come from
My Ozark mountain home
Oh my mind, it wanders back
To runnin' barefoot in the yard
And grandma yellin'
"It's dinner time, come on"
Hands joined 'round the table
Giving thanks with grateful hearts
Then we'd fall asleep
While crickets sing their song
Hummin' right along...
Hmmmmmmm
Oh the whippoorwill is callin' me
To the place I long to go
Where the hills roll through the valleys
Down into the Buffalo
Slow and steady are the voices
That I hear whene'er I roam
They remind me of where I come from
They remind me of where I come from
Down the holler, where my heart will always run
To my Ozark mountain home
