John Denver - Wild Flowers In A Mason Jar Lyrics

Love this song.....Beautiful......10/27/19

I love this song. Nearly makes me cry every time I hear it. But whomever put the slideshow together for the music has clearly never been to Kentucky. The song and slides are disconnected. Find slides or go to Kentucky and take pics to match the song.

Love..Love..Love

Great song

This song enters my heart like soaking water into the soil.

Every time I listen to this song, memory goes back to my childhood and tears emerge in nostalgia.

Omg thx for sharing. Love this dearly.

We are so blessed to do most of our work out in the country. Thank you for sharing!

John was a decent human being...you can hear it in every note .

My grandma always had this on when I came to her house and I would walk in and smile cuz my name is Mason

Mason, what a wonderful memory to have of your grandmother. There is no doubt that her spirit is with you every time you enjoy a memory of her. God's peace, Mason.

He is my first and last favourite country singer got a gift his audio cassette from my brother at the age of 10 now I am 44 love his songs since than.

Hearing this particular song from John Denver tonight for the first time. 1/20/16 9:40 p.m. Nice song as I had a hunch it would be.

I miss both John Denver and my grandparents!

I have a mason jar filled with wild flowers in memory of of my Dad who grew up in the Dakotas. Thank you for posting this beautiful song.....

DANKE FÜR HINWEIS - TOLLER GEHEIMTIPP - GLÜCKLICHER ZUFALL führt zu DIESEN SONG - THE COWBOY an THE LADY oder SOME DAYS ARE DIAMONDS als TITELSONG sind auch da. 1981 ein GUTES JAHR

This song reminds me the memories  of the good time when I was a little boy.

I grew up in Huron, South Dakota and we had flowers in a mason jar because we had no vases. Good times in the country.  From one fellow S.D. to another. Thank you.

I remember going there on vacation one time. It was bigger and more exciting than Winner and Gregory. Have a wonderful Christmas!

Thanks for posting this excellent song! Have you ever been to England?

I just love this song!

My dad was born and raised in Sexton's Creek KY. and of all John's songs this one cuts the deepest, they don't call KY "God's country" for nothing.

That's so cool to know, thank you for sharing!

From Benham KY and this song hits home. Thanks

I'd like to post it but don't know how.

Glad you had a good trip and made it back safely!

Well my trip went well. But I left part of my soul there. John really touched the hearts of all who long to be back home again.

Preciosa cancion, John Denver como siempre una mezcla de nostalgia y su toque folk.

I took a listen to him. He has a wonderful voice! Thanks for sharing.

Larry Jon Wilson also did a respectable job with this song (it's on YouTube as well). However, I don't know if the writer (Dennis Lind) ever recorded it, or if it was a "work for hire". It's still a great song, though.

I agree with you! Thanks for stopping by.

I did go take a listen. Mel McDaniel had such a soothing, pure voice. He did a great job singing this song. Thanks for sharing that with me. Have a wonderful day and keep cool...I am guessing it's hot where you are as well.

if you like this song you should listen to mel mcdaniels version "mel mcdaniel-the farm"

you might like it more (or not)

Have a safe trip and best of luck to you, my friend.

I am going back in July. To the Black Mountain area of Benham, KY.

oh. I was just wonderin bcuz my grandma and grandpa used to have a dairy farm around northville. I'm from Wecota...i doubt you know where that is but if you do, good for you!! :D

my apologies for being slow to respond. They had a dairy farm in Winner, SD. It was so much fun to get up and watch my uncle milk the cows by hand. We took baths in a tub on the back porch and slept 3 to a bed. It was a wonderful time. You can imagine our excitement when he got the electric milkers in the mid-70's. Such good memories.

Thanks for your kind words. God bless your Grandpa. I have no doubt of the hard working man he must have been. It is the kind of song that just warms your heart. I hope you get back to Kentucky. I drove through the state last year...absolutely beautiful!!

Love this song, my grandpa is a Ky coalminer. I was born there and am going back! Never knew my grandpa but I think it would have been like this song!

what town r your aunt and uncle from? (sry, just wonderin) great video :)

@VashtiInez It is from "Some Days are Diamonds " album. Thanks for stopping by.

John Denver is still with us...lovely song...another I'd never heard till now...thanks so much for posting...

Lovely!!

@TheMargie76c How cool is that?! Did your hubby help on the recordings of the other songs on this particular album? Tel him thank you from me....I sure do love this song!

This is the first time, in 30 years, I get to listen to this song. When I was a kid, it was played one time by my uncle, in Argentina, I amways remembered it.
Now I found it.
Very emotional.
Thanks.

I love the dedication at this end of this video. AMERICAN FARMERS!!!!!

Awesome, I have loved this song for years! I can't listen to it while I am drinking ;-)

Thanks for this song. God I miss the farm! Thanks Mom and Dad for giving me that gift. You both sacraficed so much for my happiness. Love you both SO much. You can view my Dad's virtual memorial on Find a Grave under "William Clayton Clark".

It was an honor and joy to do so...thanks for stopping by.

what a song...wow...nice images to go with...thank you so much

probably one of my favorite Denver songs!

Thanks! ;-)

Excellent! Thanks for sharing this. Makes want to be on the farm!

Glad you enjoyed it. ;-)

You're vwelcome...thanks for commenting. I feel the same way and wonder about the songs that could have been.

Thanks so much for your kind comments. The song sure takes you back in time, doesn't it?

Thanks for the comment. I had fun making it and finding just the right pictures to use. I bought the "Some Days are Diamonds" album when it came out on vinyl in 1981. There are some really great songs on there that never made it as singles. I have all of his albums on CD now, but I still hang on to my vinyl albums....nostalgia, I guess. Take care.

It's always fun to hear from other people who love his music as much as I do. Thanks for commenting. ;-)

I'm so glad to have found this!I love JD and this song and album are great!I just turned 30 and have loved his music since early '91
