You're in a sad situation not going anywhere You feel that it's time for a change So you head towards the sunshine out there in the West You're leaving your hometown for some place strange You say goodbye to loved ones and everything you've known To take a chance and find the rainbow's end But what you find out there may not be the thing you're looking for It's hard to be a stranger without a friend Iowa windmills spinning 'round They're the gateway to the golden west Don't get caught in the blades while you're running away The greener grass ain't always the best So you hop a Greyhound bus with a suitcase and a prayer And tell the driver take me far as you can But as you search for something better you just might get lost And the cost you paid you'll finally understand You arrive and find a crash pad for a dance and a song But still, you find everything is wrong You have to change the way you're thinking and not the soil you tread upon Please come back east where you belong Iowa windmills spinning 'round They're the gateway to the golden west Don't get caught in the blades while you're running away The greener grass ain't always the best Until you find a clear direction in your heart and in your mind Wandering around will just kill time Maybe you've been knockin' on the wrong doors Or the wrong ladder you're trying to climb Iowa windmills spinning 'round They're the gateway to the golden west Don't get caught in the blades while you're running away The greener grass ain't always the best
