It's Something To Live In Denver.
(By A c. Riddoeh. in Denver Municipal
Facts)
It's something to live in Denver.
The sun shines every day
And throws his mantle of glory
Ger mountains old and gray:
Where faces are bright and happy.
And hearts are light and gay
As the pretty feathered songsters
That cheer summers day.
It's something to live in Denver.
In shadow of the hills.
Where fingers the silvery echo
OF many snow-kissed rills;
Where skies are robed in purple sheen.
And clouds don rainbow tints,
And where appear on every hand
The Almighty's clear footprints.
It's something to live in Denver,
To hear big band play
Out meath the blue. in City park,
Upon glad Christmas. day
It's something to see the ladies'
Upon the streets in white.
Transforming earth to paradise.
The city. without night
It's something to live in Denver.
City of wingless wealth.
Where one may drink the nectar. rich,
OF ruddy, glowing health;
Where even crust tastes sweeter. far.
When kissed by mountain air.
Than richest viands provided
For banquets grand. elsewhere.
Its something to live in Denver.
Fair city of the West,
Seated upon a steadfast throne.
Upon the land and sea.
And may her people richer grow.
And ever happier be.
