My heart lives in the heart of the Smokies The Great Smoky Mountains, I claim as my own And I will abide in the heart of the Smokies Mighty and magic, my people, my home Mine is a heart that lives in these mountains My blood flows as pure as its rivers and streams My love blossoms frees like the flowers and the trees Its hallows and hills ever wind through my dreams My heart lives in the heart of the Smokies The Great Smoky Mountains, I claim as my own And I will abide in the heart of the Smokies Mighty and magic, my people, my home God lives in these hills, his lights ever glows In the eyes of the people and critters that roam I've traveled about, and I swear without doubt The voice of these mountains keep callin' me home! My heart lives in the heart of the Smokies The Great Smoky Mountains, I claim as my own And I will abide in the heart of the Smokies Mighty and magic, my people, my home The Great Smoky Mountains, the place I call home Heart of the Smokies!
