Emerald of Ramona

by Michael Dean Goodrich
I’m on my way, to the hills of California  
and the lights of my Ramona show the way      
I’m here to stay, and know nothing comes between us, 
all the lightning and this rain won’t cloud my day 
Chorus 
 I have seen from the mountain tops the colors of her face 
and her Emerald green fields shine 
And the joyful winds have whistled through and danced along with grace 
And my Emerald beauty's heart is mine 
Verse 
With clear blue skies there still remains a wilderness 
where rattlesnakes and wild creature’s roam 
And I feel high as I travel up the highway, 
her beauty is a song that Leads me Home 
Chorus 
I have seen from the mountain tops the colors of her face 
and her Emerald green fields shine 
And the joyful winds have whistled through and danced along with grace 
And my Emerald beauty's heart is mine 
Oh my Emerald Beauty's heart is mine 

Instrumental (Intro) 
Verse 
I hear her voice, and songbirds with their melodies, 
the reason I believe it’s meant to be 
So I rejoice! As we Gather ‘round the fire, 
and the kindness of her Love has set me Free 
Chorus 
I have seen from the mountain tops the colors of her face 
and her Emerald green fields shine 
And the joyful winds have whistled through and danced along with grace 
And my Emerald beauty's heart is mine 
Chorus 
I have seen from the mountain tops the colors of her face 
and her Emerald green fields shine 
And the joyful winds have whistled through and danced along with grace 
And my Emerald beauty's heart is mine 
Oh, my Emerald Beauty's heart is mine 
my Emerald … Beauty's heart … is mine!

The Ramona Music Alliance (RMA) was founded in 2022 by local musicians Jon Hasz and Ashley E. Norton. 
The idea is to make the amazing music scene that is already organically growing into an official organization. 
The goal is to continue to encourage and support live music venues and each other, 
help build audiences and share information and resources. 
Ramona is a happy place with great music and wine! 
We hope to expand and continue to watch it grow together, as the amazing community we are.
