Montana

(Bob Nolan – Lou Forbes)

To the rolling hills of Montana,

To the waving fields of grain,

To the open arms of Montana

Let my heart ever turn again.

Hee-lee-ay, hee-lee-o,

Hear the plains callin’ sweet and low.

Let me feel those ties that bind me

And my heart to your heart, Montana.

Hee-lee-ay, hee-lee-o,

Hear the plains callin’ sweet and low.

Let me feel those ties that bind me

And my heart to your heart, Montana.

Note: For RKO's production, Cattle Queen of Montana, film composer Lou Forbes wrote a melody and asked Bob Nolan to write lyrics for it. Unfortunately, the song was not used in the film.
