Earthbound in Kansas
You hear all the talk of your storybook life
But it don't seem that perfect as you turn twenty five
You've never been anywhere, never seen anything
You could die on the vine praying for rain
(Modulate)
While you're telling yourself there's got to be more
You keep your eye on that eagle and you watch him soar
That must be some special freedom up there in the blue
So far from earthbound in Kansas like you . . .
(Chorus)
Earthbound in Kansas and going nowhere
With the dreams of a dreamer and no one seems to care
Got your feet on the groud and your eyes to the sky
Watching life pass you by. . . going going ... gone
Earthbound in Kansas alone
(Inst.)
(Bridge)
Dorothy "Clicked" her heels to get back to this place
You ask what do I do ... just to get away .. You're
(Chorus)
Earthbound in Kansas and going nowhere
With the dreams of a dreamer and no one seems to care
Got your feet on the ground and your eyes to the sky
Watching life pass you by. . . going going ... gone
Earthbound in Kansas alone
Earthbound in Kansas alone
