Ben Hur Arkansas
I've  been a lot of  places in this land, 
From sea to shining sea. 
There's a  place in the hills of Arkansas
That means more than them all to me,
A little wildwood church where people meet 
To praise the Lord above. 
They don't...

Premium Member The Spirit of Christmas, Dover, Arkansas
In our little Arkansas Dover town, we never clown around, about the sacrifice
Christmas is about Christ, and his great love, which suffices 

We live and let live, to our charities we give, for in heaven above
It's all about Love, refining one's self, to enjoy in...

The Mountains of Arkansas
The sun raises up over the ridge 
The sky shines a multitude of colors
Pink with a tinge of purple 
That only lasts for a few precious moments

Some mornings the clouds 
Come down from the sky into the fields
Allowing a walk in the mist
Who knew it...

Agent Arkansas 90766 Beta (Prelude)
Striped of your name and trained to kill
Put a glaze over your eyes and war-forge skill

Suit you in armor and give you a gun
expect you to follow orders but you run

Part of the crew 49 all standing
awaiting the chance to escape the Landing

the machines try...

Saw No Bra In Arkansas
Saw No Bra in Arkansas

First lady we ever saw
With now bra from Arkansas
A huge crowd did draw.

Both bosoms were at their best
Of time truly passed its test
As they stood at rest.

Raise up what could cause them to
Like soldiers always new
Short crew cuts should do.

When crew...

Arkansas, I Remember
Sitting on front porches, old folks I remember, 
in the shade filtered Arkansas heat, spitting snuff into mason jars, 
remembering to us the things that happened, when they lived 
in that faraway land called “a while ago” 

On dusty golden summer Sunday afternoons, Chicken dinners...
