Couple guys in first class on a flight from New York to Los Angeles |
| [00:24.96] |
Kinda making small talk, killin' time, flirtin' with the flight attendants |
| [00:29.83] |
|
| [00:30.77] |
Thirty thousand feet above what would be Oklahoma |
| [00:35.58] |
|
| [00:36.64] |
Just a bunch of square corn fields and wheat farms, man it all looks the same |
| [00:41.00] |
|
| [00:42.51] |
Miles and miles of back roads and highways connecting little towns and fun & games |
| [00:47.94] |
|
| [00:48.50] |
Who'd wanna live down there, in the middle of nowhere |
| [00:52.82] |
|
| [00:54.69] |
They've never drove through Indiana |
| [00:57.38] |
|
| [01:00.13] |
Been the man who plowed that Earth |
| [01:02.69] |
|
| [01:03.19] |
Planted that seed, busted his ass for you and me |
| [01:05.82] |
|
| [01:06.88] |
Or caught a harvest moon in Kansas |
| [01:10.13] |
|
| [01:11.88] |
Or they'd understand why God made those fly over states |
| [01:16.32] |
|
| [01:19.76] |
I bet that mile haul in Santa Fe freight train engineer's seen it all |
| [01:24.51] |
|
| [01:25.51] |
Just like that flat bed cowboy stacking US steel on a three day haul |
| [01:30.38] |
|
| [01:31.13] |
Roads and rails under their feet, yeah that sounds like a first class seat |
| [01:36.26] |
|
| [01:36.82] |
On the plains of Oklahoma |
| [01:40.01] |
|
| [01:41.51] |
With a windshield sunset in your eyes |
| [01:44.44] |
|
| [01:45.19] |
Like a water-color painted sky |
| [01:47.19] |
|
| [01:49.13] |
You'll think heaven's doors have opened |
| [01:51.75] |
|
| [01:53.06] |
You'll understand why God made those fly over states |
| [01:58.49] |
|
| [02:11.55] |
Take a ride across the Badlands |
| [02:14.24] |
|
| [02:17.73] |
Feel that freedom on your face |
| [02:19.80] |
|
| [02:20.92] |
Breathe in all that open space |
| [02:22.73] |
|
| [02:23.42] |
And meet a girl from Amarillo |
| [02:25.67] |
|
| [02:28.55] |
You'll understand why God made... |
| [02:30.02] |
|
| [02:31.64] |
You might even wanna plant your stakes |
| [02:33.46] |
|
| [02:34.33] |
In those fly over states Yeah |
| [02:35.02] |
|
| [02:52.46] |

| [02:55.03] |
