When
            handsome guys 
        With eagle eyes 
        Watch you like a hawk 
        You bet the farm 
        I’ll let no harm 
        Hurt you with love 
        Bird talk 
        From meadow larks 
          Who play the field 
          I’ll protect your heart 
          Our love is in full flower now 
          That’s why I play this part 
        I do my thinkin’ in 
          Lincoln 
          But I do my drinkin’ 
          In Omaha 
        Sweet little yahoo 
          From Wahoo 
          So crazy about you 
          I’m grabbing at straw 
        The scarecrow in 
          Heartland is human 
          At your apartment 
          Rolling in hay 
           
                  I’ll kiss away all 
          Your troubles 
          And chase your blues 
          Away 
        I’ll make your problems 
          Fly 
          As wild geese in 
          The sky 
        I’ll keep standing 
          Cool 
          And watch for 
          Flocks of fools 
        You broke my heart 
          In Nebraska 
          God’s greener pasture 
          Stop a farm girl 
          And ask her 
        You left me stranded 
          Zap and I landed 
          The scarecrow of 
          Happy heartland
