You've listened to the tales
Of the land where people fail
And the hills stand gray and cold
But don't forget my friend
When you're lookin' for the end
The one that's made of gold
Through goldenrod and thistle
On to mountains that will glisten
Is the land of Colorado
Aspen Colorado-John Denver
There's a town down in the mountains,
Where the skies are always blue.
The people there are friendly,
And the grass grows just for you.
The winters are so snowy,
And the summers are pure green.
The fish are always biting,
And the beer is always keen.
The mountains rise up high,
And the rivers run down low.
The flowers are so lovely,
And the air is pure as snow.
I could stay here forever,
In this town so peaceful and serene.
But I know I can't,
So I'll just dream.
Rocky Mountain High-John Denver
I've seen it raining fire in the sky
I've seen it snowing in July
And I've seen the sun so red the clouds would cry
Tears of blood in crimson sky
I've seen the valley burning in the sun
I've seen the forest raging hot as hell
And I've seen the damage that is done
To what the power brokers sell
I've heard the sound of thunder in my bones
I've heard the voice of nature call me home
And I've heard the truth in every tone
That rings of freedom in my soul
So come on baby let me know
What more can I do to show you
That it's time to start livin'
It's time to take a stand against the devils plan
Colorado-Henry Kaiser
From the rocky mountains high to the prairie skies,
Colorado is the place where I abide.
With its purple mountain majesties,
And amber waves of grain.
This is the land,
This is the place,
This is the song,
Of Colorado.
Colorado State Song (Where the Columbines Grow)
Where the columbines grow
And the eagle is king
Where the rivers rush down.
From snow-capped peaks,
There lies nestled our state.
Majestic and great,
Colorado, Colorado,
My home so fair,
Where the columbines grow.
Where the columbines grow,
And the valleys are green,
Where the mountain tops gleam
In hues of gold and wine,
There's a land that I love.
It is God's country above,
Colorado, Colorado,
My home so fair,
Where the columbines grow.
Where the columbines grow
And the people are true
Where the mountains are high
And the skies are deep blue,
There I live and I love,
In the land from above,
Colorado, Colorado,
My home so fair,
Where the columbines grow.
