Lyrics

Tell me of that Treasure State,

Story always new,

Tell of its beauties grand

And its hearts so true.

Mountains of sunset fire

The land I love the best

Let me grasp the hand of one

From out the golden West

Montana, Montana, Glory of the West

Of all the states from coast to coast, You're easily the best

Montana, Montana, Where skies are always blue

M-O-N-T-A-N-A

Montana I love you!

Each country has its flower;

Each one plays a part,

Each bloom brings a longing hope

To some lonely heart.

Bitterroot to me is dear

Growing in my land

Sing then that glorious air

The one I understand.

Montana, Montana, Glory of the West

Of all the states from coast to coast, You're easily the best

Montana, Montana, Where skies are always blue

M-O-N-T-A-N-A

Montana I love you!
