Driving through the Land of Lincoln Always gets me thinkin' Of the flatlands where I come from And the life I left behind Corn grew high on Grandpa's farm Now they've boarded up the barn That way of life from long ago Just withered on the vine You can take a girl out of the heartland But you can't take the heartland From the heart of a flatland girl You can plant your dreams on God's green acre Send them to heaven in a grain elevator But prayers don't run a tractor Or promise a summer rain I found out when I was young A farmer's day is never done When the hard times hit the heartland and I had to move away You can take a girl out of the heartland But you can't take the heartland From the heart of a flatland girl Then one day from the Windy City In blew a man who could talk so pretty He had a long look and grandpa shook That's been five years ago Nowadays when I'm up in the Land of Lincoln I ask myself what were they thinking All that's left is a photograph of the flatland fields of home You can take a girl out of the heartland But you can't take the heartland From the heart You can take a girl out of the heartland But you can't take the heartland From the heart of a flatland girl
