Beautiful Cedar Falls by Dennis A. Downs
(audio sample, 157 kb)
(prologue - ballad in 4)There is a place on the Cedar River, lush with green and air so clean,
Where smiling faces welcome you, and students learn while seasons turn.
A little bit of Heaven in I-o-wa.
(chorus - flowing waltz)
Beautiful Cedar Falls! City of hope and cheer!
Wonderful living, friendly and giving, hearts who will hold you near.
These are Iowans proud to know, this is the place to grow.
Happy today, it’s great to say “I love beautiful Cedar Falls!”
(trio)
University of Northern Iowa’s here,
and wonderful sights of all kind,
Celebrations and music and industry, too.
And the trails are the best you will find. Come find them in...
(chorus)
Beautiful Cedar Falls! City of hope and cheer!
Wonderful living, friendly and giving, hearts who will hold you near.
These are Iowans proud to know, this is the place to grow.
Happy today, it’s great to say “This is the place I want to stay!
Join in the fun, Come out and play here in beautiful Cedar Falls!”
