lyrics

fifteen hours, Midwest to the sea
solid ground has been my friend
Ozark gravel, Boot-heel backroads
carried me down to where land ends

I been livin’ in the middle of a land so wild and free
lookin’ up to the silver planes flyin’ over me
never thought I’d say it but there’s no place I’d rather be
than livin’ in the middle, livin’ in the middle
and I’ll miss her soul when it’s my time to leave

high on the prairie, feel that Kansas wind
blowin’ cross the landscape of my soul
greener pastures, sweet slow river bend
feed that wide Missouri, let it roll
let it roll (chorus)

she’s far behind me now, time took me away
but still those skies are in my heart
streaks o’ lightning, prairie thunder
let me sleep beneath those stars (chorus)
