Missouri

Lyrics

My father's ashes lie Hidden deep within Missouri woods Beneath the green spire linden tree Where the whippoorwills sing But all my children know Are the city sounds through bedroom window And they will never grieve What you would have meant to them Chorus: Missouri, Missouri Where the Ozark mountains roll When my wandering has ended Won't you Show Me my way home? All these years have come and gone But time and miles cannot erase How I feel you deep inside my bones Where I was born and raised (Chorus)
