Midwestern Girl

Barry Privett, Carter Gravatt, Terry Clark

She's a midwestern girl
Her heart is papier-mâché
With a tornado ripping through
'Cause she is ready for change
California was fine
And she could soak up the sun
But she's returning to her roots
Where she will always belong
I-O-W-A now
I-O-W-A now

She's a midwestern girl
She's finally back in her state
I'm just a ghost out in the field
Virginia's so far away
She has the mane of a lion
Husky eyes that are framed
In cheekbones sculpted on the winds
Of I-O-W-A

Tell her when she's not around
Tell her as you're leaving town
Tell her when she's not around
Tell her everything now

But what are you supposed to say?
To a midwestern girl
As you’re driving away
Well if you see your soulmate
Standing out in the field
Keep your eyes on the road
And your hands on the wheel

Down at the Val Air Ballroom
Out in western Des Moines
She's dancing out on the dance floor
And I feel high
Now the mirror ball’s spinning
It's a hundred degrees
It's always safer when it's crowded
But there are no guarantees

Tell her when she's not around
Tell her everything is fine
Tell her when she's not around
Before her roots take ahold
But I don't know what you're supposed to say
To a midwestern girl
A thousand miles away
Well if you see your soulmate
Standing out in the field
Just keep your eyes on the road
And your hands on the wheel

I'm just a ghost in the field
And she's the tundra queen
A midwestern girl
Beside an old evergreen
If you see your soulmate
Standing out in the field
Just keep your eyes on the road
And your hands on the wheel

She's a midwestern girl
I got in late in the game
But I am driving in my mind
To I-O-W-A

I-O-W-A now
I-O-W-A now
I-O-W-A now
