"Montana" is the regional anthem of the U.S. state of Montana. It was written by Charles Cohan and composed by Joseph E. Howard and was adopted as the state song on February 20, 1945. Lyrics Tell me of that Treasure State, Story always new, Tell of its beauties grand And its hearts so true. Mountains of sunset fire The land I love the best Let me grasp the hand of one From out the golden West Montana, Montana, Glory of the West Of all the states from coast to coast, You're easily the best Montana, Montana, Where skies are always blue M-O-N-T-A-N-A Montana I love you! Each country has its flower; Each one plays a part, Each bloom brings a longing hope To some lonely heart. Bitterroot to me is dear Growing in my land Sing then that glorious air The one I understand. Montana, Montana, Glory of the West Of all the states from coast to coast, You're easily the best Montana, Montana, Where skies are always blue M-O-N-T-A-N-A Montana I love you!'''
