Where The Arkansas River Leaves Oklahoma

歌詞

(Wayland Holyfield) Where the Arkansas River leaves Oklahoma It runs free and rambles, muddy and wide Where the Arkansas River leaves Oklahoma It's gone forever and never looks back I met her in Stillwell, she just turned twenty A spirited beauty like I've never known And me a dirt farmer who lived by the river But she said she loved me and the free life I owned We married in April and lived by the river We worked that land from spring 'til the fall But I guess when the winter howled at our window She couldn't help hearing that wild river call Where the Arkansas River leaves Oklahoma It runs free and rambles, muddy and wide Where the Arkansas River leaves Oklahoma It's gone forever and never looks back She tried to conquer that wild rage within her But something too strong ran deep in her soul But I know she loved me, she cried like a baby That cold winter evening she answered the call Where the Arkansas River leaves Oklahoma It runs free and rambles, muddy and wide Where the Arkansas River leaves Oklahoma It's gone forever and never looks back.
