| Everywhere I look today everything is green
|
| Oklahoma’s prettier now than I have ever seen
|
| High up in the cottonwood an eagle makes her nest
|
| Evening on the Verdigris, the time I love the best
|
| Down along the Verdigris, the seasons come and go
|
| Life is right beside you here and you can feel it flow
|
| Down to meet the Arkansas then rolling to the sea
|
| All the way to New Orleans from here on the Verdigris
|
| Come and take a walk with me along the Verdigris
|
| I’ll show you a sunset that’s the way it’s meant to be
|
| Blackbird heading homeward at the closing of the day
|
| Just like me, the Verdigris is where he means to stay
|
| Down along the Verdigris, the seasons come and go
|
| Life is right beside you here and you can feel it flow
|
| Down to meet the Arkansas then rolling to the sea
|
| All the way to New Orleans from here on the Verdigris
|
| My first steps were taken where her muddy waters flow
|
| All my life I’ve walked these hills, these hills are what I know
|
| I tried life in Tulsa did not do a thing for me
|
| I long to hear the birds in song along the Verdigris
|
| Down along the Verdigris, the seasons come and go
|
| Life is right beside you here and you can feel it flow
|
| Down to meet the Arkansas then rolling to the sea
|
| All the way to New Orleans from here on the Verdigris
|
| Down along the Verdigris, the seasons come and go
|
| Life is right beside you here and you can feel it flow
|
| Down to meet the Arkansas then rolling to the sea
|
| All the way to New Orleans from here on the Verdigris
|
| Down to meet the Arkansas then rolling to the sea
|
| All the way to New Orleans from here on the Verdigris |
