Had an uncle named matthew
Was his fathers only boy
Born just south of colby, kansas
Was his mothers pride and joy
Yes, and joy was just the thing that he was raised on
Love was just the way to live and die
Gold was just a windy kansas wheatfield
Blue, just a kansas summer sky
All the stories that he told me
Back when I was just a lad
All the memories that he gave me
All the good times that he had
Growin up a kansas farmboy
Life was mostly havin fun
Ridin on his daddys shoulders
Behind a view beneath the sun
Yes, and joy was just the thing that he was raised on
Love was just the way to live and die
Gold was just a windy kansas wheatfield
Blue is just a kansas summer sky
Well, I guess there were some hard times
And Im told some years were lean
They had a storm in forty-seven
A twister came and stripped them clean
He lost the farm and lost his family
He lost the wheat and lost his home
But he found a family bible
Faith as solid as a stone
Yes, and joy was just the thing that he was raised on
Love was just the way to live and die
Gold was just a windy kansas wheatfield
Blue, just a kansas summer sky
So he came to live at our house
And he came to work the land
He came to ease my daddys burden
And he came to be my friend
So, I wrote this down for matthew
And its for him the song is sung
Ridin on his daddys shoulders
Behind a mule beneath the sun
Yes, and joy was just the thing that he was raised on
Love was just the way to live and die
Gold was just a windy kansas wheatfield
Blue, just a kansas summer sky
Yes, and joy was just the thing that he was raised on
Love was just the way to live and die
Gold was just a windy kansas wheatfield
Blue, just a kansas summer sky

John Denver, pseudonimo di Henry John Deutschendorf Jr. (1943-1997), è stato un cantautore e musicista statunitense profondamente legato al genere folk rock. Nato a Roswell, nel New Mexico, Denver ha trascorso la sua infanzia tra il Colorado e l'Arizona, influenzato dalla bellezza naturale del paesaggio occidentale americano che spesso trovava ispirazione nelle sue canzoni. Dopo aver studiato musica al college, si è trasferito a Denver, Colorado, dove ha iniziato la sua carriera musicale suonando in locali e festival folk. Nel 1970 ha firmato un contratto discografico con RCA Records e ha pubblicato il suo album di debutto, "Poems, Prayers and Promises", che ha riscosso un grande successo. Denver è diventato famoso per le sue melodie orecchiabili, i testi poetici e la sua voce calda e rassicurante. I suoi brani più famosi includono "Take Me Home, Country Roads", "Annie's Song" e "Rocky Mountain High". La sua musica ha spesso celebrato la natura, l'amore per la famiglia e il desiderio di pace e armonia. Oltre alla musica, Denver si è impegnato in diverse cause ambientaliste e umanitarie, diventando un simbolo di speranza e positività per milioni di persone in tutto il mondo.
