Fly Over States Lyrics - Jason Aldean

1 Couple guys in first class on a flight from New York to Los Angeles

2 Kinda making small talk, killin' time, flirtin' with the flight attendants

3 Thirty thousand feet above what would be Oklahoma

4 Just a bunch of square corn fields and wheat farms, man it all looks the same

5 Miles and miles of back roads and highways connecting little towns with funny names

6 Who'd wanna live down there, in the middle of nowhere

7 They've never drove through Indiana

8 Met the man who plowed that Earth

9 Planted that seed, busted his ass for you and me

10 Or caught a harvest moon in Kansas

11 They'd understand why God made those fly over states

12 I bet that mile haul in Santa Fe freight train engineer's seen it all

13 Just like that flat bed cowboy stacking U.S. steel on a three day haul

14 Roads and rails under their feet, yeah that sounds like a first class seat

15 On the plains of Oklahoma

16 With a windshield sunset in your eyes

17 Like a watercolor painted sky

18 You'll think heaven's doors have opened

19 You'll understand why God made those fly over states

20 Take a ride across the Badlands

21 Feel that freedom on your face

22 Breathe in all that open space

23 And meet a girl from Amarillo

24 You'll understand why God made...

25 You might even wanna plant your stakes

26 In those fly over states

27 Yeah

28 Have you ever been through Indiana

29 On the plains of Oklahoma

30 Take a ride
