I left my heart in the heart of the south
Where fancy cars and 4x4 role down the same ground
And happiness is measured by Sunday morning smiles
Nothing like the loving from the prettiest girl you've ever seen
Where granny makes the best homemade pork and beans
Where mountains touch the plains for miles and miles
Time spent here is time spent well
There's no place I'd rather be
This is where I'm from, this is where I belong
Nobody can take that from me
Where I come from, our roots are strong
And once you land down here you'll never want to leave
I left my heart in the heart of Arkansas
School all week then Friday night football
A Saturday to give a good friend a call
You're here for them and they're here for you too
The pace is fast but slow enough to stop
And think about the blessings that you've got
About the people you love and love you too
Time spent here is time spent well
There's no place I'd rather be
This is where I'm from, this is where I belong
Nobody can take that from me
Where I come from, our roots are strong
And once you land down here you'll never want to leave
I left my heart in the heart of Arkansas
It's where I found God, where I found love
It's running through my blood
This is where I'm from, this is where I belong
Nobody can take that from me
Where I come from, our roots are strong
And once you land down here you'll never want to leave
I left my heart in the heart of Arkansas
