It Ain't Called Heartland (For Nothin')

She could see him comin' from a mile away

Kickin' up dust down the dirt road

She ran an' met him at the front gate

Hopped in the truck and said let's go

You wouldn't think there'd be much to do

So far from the city lights

But give two kids all that room

An' there's no tellin' what they'd find

They felt the rhythm of the wind

Blowin' through the wheat fields

The sun wasn't all that fell

As the moon began to rise

Beneath the stars in each other's arms

They were onto somethin'

It ain't called Heartland for nothin'

The thing about bein' from a town that small

Is everyone's lookin' for a way out

But that never crossed their minds at all

After twenty good years, there's no doubt

The two of them saw so much more

Than corn an' barbed wire fence

They found a love worth stayin' for

An' they've been together ever since

They felt the rhythm of the wind

Blowin' through the wheat fields

The sun wasn't all that fell

As the moon began to rise

Beneath the stars in each other's arms

They were onto somethin'

It ain't called Heartland for nothin'

Oh, they felt the rhythm of the wind

Blowin' through the wheat fields

The sun wasn't all that fell

As the moon began to rise

Beneath the stars in each other's arms

They were onto somethin'

It ain't called Heartland for nothin'

We're in Heartland

Heartland, Heartland
