Notes
- I got the most of the songs from internet research, so if you find anything that’s incorrect, let me know.
- Some songs were easy to find. Some were not. Some I had to notate myself after listening to recordings.
- Some states have more than one state song, and some are still under copyright. I couldn’t find a copyright on some songs – and I found out that some songs’ composers waived the copyright.
- Most of the songs had tons of verses, so I just chose a couple in each case. If you need more verses, they are all findable on the internet.
This is great! I’m a Montana native, and I’ve never heard the first part of the song until I stumbled across your blog…We always learned it from the “Montana, Montana…” part. I guess you really do learn something new everyday! Thanks so much for this blog, I will be visiting often!
That’s awesome! Thanks for sharing!
Hello, Great resource!
Rocky Mountain High, by John Denver is another Colorado State song.
Absolutely! It has a copyright so I can’t list it here, but it’s a great song!
I have a large collection of songs about wyoming, if you are interested?
Sure, send me any public domain songs about Wyoming you have! info@bethsnotes.com
