State Song "Arizona"

by Rex Allen, Jr.I love you, Arizona;

Your mountains, deserts and streams;The rise of Dos Cabezas*

And the outlaws I see in my dreams;I love you Arizona,Superstitions and all;

The warmth you give at sunrise;Your sunsets put music in us all.

Oo, Arizona; You're the magic in me;Oo, Arizona, You're the life-blood of me;

I love you Arizona;Desert dust on the wind;

The sage and cactus are blooming,And the smell of the rain on your skin.

Oo, Arizona; You're the magic in me; Oo, Arizona, You're the life-blood of me;
