From the recording State By State "Tribute 3"
Lyrics
Rolling plains stretch out for miles,
Wheat fields swaying golden smiles,
Sunflower highways lead me home,
To the place where buffalo used to roam.
Kansas, Kansas, endless and free,
Wide open spaces, just the land and me,
Where the sky touches down to the ground,
In this heartland, I am found.
Tornado warnings on the radio,
Summer storms put on a show,
Lightning dancing across the plains,
Thunder echoing like freight trains.
Kansas, Kansas, endless and free,
Wide open spaces, just the land and me,
Where the sky touches down to the ground,
In this heartland, I am found.
Small town lights on Saturday night,
Stars above burning bright,
Simple life, honest ways,
These are my Kansas days.
Kansas, Kansas, you're part of me,
From the Flint Hills to the prairie sea,
Where the wind whispers stories all around,
In this heartland, I am found,
Yeah, in this heartland, I am home.
