Arkansas
Recorded by the Wilburn Brothers
written by Damon Black

C C
Though the brambles took the cabin I was born in
Am Am C C
And the briers have claimed the fields I used to plow
F F C C
There's a yearning in my heart to be going
G7 G7 C C
To that 40 acre patch God sowed in Stroud

Am Am C C
Arkansas are your rivers still flowing
F F G7 G7
Is your cotton growing white as snow
F F C C
Are the squirrels still a barking up on Old Crowleys Ridge
F F C C Am Am
Has the girl I was sparking gone and burned another bridge
C C
Arkansas


I have known the troubles I was born to know
Am Am C C
I have wanted things a poor mans born to want
F F C C
And in all my dreams and memories I go running
G7 G7 C C
Through the fields of Arkansas from which I sprung

Am Am C C
Arkansas are your rivers still flowing
F F G7 G7
Is your cotton growing white as snow
F F C C
Do the young men still fiddle with the thought of growing rich
F F C C Am Am
And slowly turn to old folks sitting whittling on a stick
C C
Arkansas
