The Scarecrow of Happy Heartland
 

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
