Desert Soul - Arizona Skies | 50 States of Country Music 2025

[Verse 1]
Red rock horizon, sun sinking low,
Cactus stands tall in the desert glow.
Dust on my boots, heat in the air,
But there’s peace in the silence, and I find it there.

[Verse 2]
Old Route 66 runs through my veins,
From Flagstaff winds to the Phoenix plains.
Coyotes howl in the silver moonlight,
Stars like fire over Sedona nights.

[Chorus]
Arizona, land of flame and stone,
Where the desert sings, and I feel at home.
You're in my blood, you're in my bones,
My heart beats strong — this land I own.
Oh Arizona, you wild open road,
With sunsets painted in golden code.

[Verse 3]
Rattlesnake rattle, the river runs dry,
But the soul of this land never says goodbye.
Copper mines and tumbleweeds roll,
Every canyon echoes deep in my soul.

[Bridge]
Let the dust rise, let the wind decide,
Every scar I’ve got — I wear with pride.
You're more than heat, you're freedom wide,
Arizona, you're my desert guide.

[Chorus]
Arizona, land of flame and stone,
Where the desert sings, and I feel at home.
You're in my blood, you're in my bones,
My heart beats strong — this land I own.
Oh Arizona, you wild open road,
With sunsets painted in golden code.

[Outro]
So let me ride 'neath your endless skies,
With the spirit of the West in my eyes.
Arizona, forever you’ll be,
A desert soul runnin’ wild and free.
