"Ozark" lyrics

I was born up on the hill
Though I am being born still
I was carried down to the river valley

On the big bend of the Arkansas
I was raised up right or I was raised up wrong
It depends on who you ask about me

People talk but they don't know
When ya tell em that's where you call it home
They say ah yea buddy I seen that show before

But they don't know what it's like to feel
Like the world is wrong and the nature's real
Rollin down Altus hill

Ozark end of the rainbow
Ozark paradise
Twice as nice
As any other place
Ozark misty mountain
Ozark running springs
It's an H I double L B I double L Y thing

Watch the river flow the way it does
Watch the trees grow the way they do
It's all connected
It's all connected to you

When I was young I didn't understand
But I'm older now and I've seen the land
Ozark please forgive me my trespasses

Cause I've been around and I seen the way
Everybody everywhere is about the same
Ozarks just so beautiful kiss my ass

Ozark end of the rainbow
Ozark paradise
Twice as nice
As any other place
Ozark misty mountain
Ozark running springs
It's an H I double L B I double L Y thing

Watch the river flow the way it does
Watch the trees grow the way they do
It's all connected
It's all connected to you

Ozark end of the rainbow
Ozark paradise
Twice as nice
As any other place
Ozark misty mountain
Ozark running springs
It's a hillbilly thing
