Episode Synopsis

I was born in the middle of nowhere
A landlocked state in the Midwest
Some folks call it flyover country
But they don't know it's the best
Got fields of corn and fields of soybeans
I can see them from my porch
I got one neighbor in a mile radius
And he calls me when his lawnmower don't work

They say that God's in Colorado
And the Devil's in LA
I think I saw the two of them
On the same flight yesterday
They're goin' places that I've never been
And never wanna go
In a place they never heard of
That's where I'm from
Nebraska

You got mountains and you got beaches
Where the water's salty and blue
But if you're looking for somewhere to slow down
We got lakes here too
I don't mind having the big sky
I like having all the space
And if you wanna go on a road trip
You can drive through here on the way

They say that God's in Colorado
And the Devil's in LA
I think I saw the two of them
On the same flight yesterday
They're goin' places that I've never been
And never wanna go
In a place they never heard of
That's where I'm from
Nebraska

Where I'm from
That's where I'm from
Where I'm from
Nebraska
