Flatland Girl (feat. Margo Price) - Molly Tuttle/Golden Highway/Margo Price

作词：Ketch Secor/Molly Tuttle

Driving through the Land of Lincoln

Always gets me thinkin'

Of the flatlands where I come from

And the life I left behind

Corn grew high on Grandpa's farm

Now they've boarded up the barn

That way of life from long ago

Just withered on the vine

You can take a girl out of the heartland

But you can't take the heartland

From the heart of a flatland girl

You can plant your dreams on God's green acre

Send them to heaven in a grain elevator

But prayers don't run a tractor

Or promise a Summer rain

I found out when I was young

A farmer's day is never done

When the hard times hit the heartland

And I had to move away

You can take a girl out of the heartland

But you can't take the heartland

From the heart of a flatland girl

Then one day from the Windy City

In blew a man who could talk so pretty

He had a long look and grandpa shook

That's been five years ago

Nowadays when I'm up in the Land of Lincoln

I ask myself what were they thinking

All that's left is a photograph of the flatland fields of home

You can take a girl out of the heartland

But you can't take the heartland

From the heart

You can take a girl out of the heartland

But you can't take the heartland

From the heart of a flatland girl
