lyrics

FLY OVER STATE. (Music and lyrics by Kevin Meade)

Well this used to be a boomtown, after the war, with the factory bringing jobs in and the paper to your door. But the factory is closing shipping our jobs over seas and the town that used to be here is slowly sinking to its knees.
That's our fate in this fly over state.
That’s our fate in this fly over state
When my daddy died of cancer we moved into the family home, cause my momma's getting older and she didn't want to be alone,
but the old house it needs fixing that will cost more than it's worth
so it slowly falls apart until it returns to the earth.
That’s our fate in this fly over state.
That’s our fate in this fly over state.
From the air you're looking down and it all looks so serene, endless fields of green but there is something in between.
All these years of progress, nothing comes without a cost, somethings getting lost, we are the parts that have been tossed.
That’s our fate in this fly over state
That’s our fate in this fly over state
There’s an Indian casino on the outskirts of the town where the people feeling lucky go and lay their money down.
I haven't felt that fortune is shining on me for a while but my lady likes to go there and i like to see her smile.
Thats my fate in this fly over state
Thats my fate in this fly over state.
Thats my fate in this fly over state
Thats my fate in this fly over state
