Arizona Alternate State Anthem Arizona |
I love you, Arizona; Your mountains, deserts and streams; The rise of Dos Cabezas* And the outlaws I see in my dreams; I love you Arizona, Superstitions** and all; The warmth you give at sunrise; Your sunsets put music in us all. Oo, Arizona; You're the magic in me; Oo, Arizona, You're the life-blood of me; I love you Arizona; Desert dust on the wind; The sage and cactus are blooming, And the smell of the rain on your skin. Oo, Arizona; You're the magic in me; Oo, Arizona, You're the life-blood of me. Copyright 1981 by BOXER MUSIC, Nashville, TN |
| In 1982, the Arizona Legislature chose Arizona, a song written and performed by Rex Allen, Jr. as an alternate state anthem. Rex Allen, Jr. and his father Rex Allen, are natives of Willcox, Arizona, about 20 miles west of the Dos Cabezas Mountains Wilderness. They are known world-wide for their famous renditions of cowboy songs. |
| * Dos Cabezas, meaning two heads, refers to two mountain peaks. Visit Dos Cabezas Mountains Wilderness in Cochise County, Arizona. |
