The stories behind Arkansas - Ozark Heart

• Ozark Heart: The Technician Behind Doc Miller’s Clinic — “Ozark Heart” tells a small, specific story: a county clinic running behind, and the person who keeps its machines from being the reason.

Lyrics

Misty morning over Mulberry

River, sun breaks through the

Ozark pines Down at the county clinic on the ridge, old

Doc Miller's runnin' behind

Small town doctor with a great big heart, needs every machine to run just right

That's when Sarah pulls up in her truck, workin' on the gear from mornin' till night

She's a quiet lifeline of the

Arkansas hills Turning wrench and wire through the winter chills

Keeping monitors steady

And the pumps tuned tight

So the small clinic doors

Stay open and bright

From Fayetteville down To the

Mountain Pass

Ozark Heart made of copper and glass

Centrifuge spinning With a soft steady hum

Calibrating sensors Till the answers come

An ECG readin' clean and clear

Brings a breath of relief to a family near

She don't get a headline

She don't ask for praise

Just keepin' promise to these mountain ways

She's the quiet lifeline of the

Arkansas hills Turnin' wrench and wire through the winter chills

Keepin' monitors steady and the pumps tuned tight

So the small clinic doors stay open and bright

From Fayetteville down to the

Mountain Pass

Ozark Heart made of copper and glass

She's the quiet lifeline of the

Arkansas hills Turning wrench and wire through the winter chills

Keeping monitors steady and the pumps tuned tight

So the small clinic doors stay open and bright

From Fayetteville down to the

Mountain Pass

Ozark Heart made of copper and glass

Mulberry River rolls calm and deep

The mountain town can rest and sleep

Ozark Heart, copper and glass
