[JOE]
Where the roots grow deep
And the winds blows clean
Where the air is sweet
And the summer's green
Where virgin field's await the plow
A great tomorrow is dawning now!

Dakota, Dakota
Where a man stands tall
Dakota, Dakota
Where there's land for all
Rolling rivers embrace the plain
For someday there's gonna be
Golden oceans of rolling rain
Just as far as your eye can see
Black hills, the blue skies
Of the shining west
Dakota, o Dakota
By the heaven's blessed


[CHILDREN]
Where the roots grow deep
And the winds blows clean
Where the air is sweet
And the summer's green
