lyrics

left while the sun was low
didn't cry 'til lockshore road
but i feel better as i go
and i'm doing fine by chicago

the prairie crumbles to hardpan
as desert overtakes the land
so lover take me as i am
cause i'm a long damn way from michigan

illinois and i'm southbound
follow the big river down
dreams so wide that i drown
while i'm living in the here and now

and underneath the arch i go
a prairie storm begins to blow
the raindrops streak the side windows
got the wipers high the fog lamps low

oklahoma, it was good to know ya
but i've got vegas on my mind

drove across the continental divide
up and down the other side
put gallup, new mexico behind me
got arizona lit up in my headlights

the prairie crumbles to hardpan
as desert overtakes the land
so lover take me as i am
'cause i'm a long damn way from michigan
