Illinois Songtext

von Brett Eldredge

I come from the heart of the heartland
Where picture shows where the corn grows in rows and rows
And summer greens, and winter snows, and it goes on Through the crack of the bat
Oh everybody rolling out their welcome mat
And our hands on our hearts under the stars of the Friday night flag
And oh, the heart will wander
Beyond that wild blue yonder
But when I get lost in the noise
Like a whipser I hear the voice of a boy
From Illinois
I remember the first time I saw that name on the Marquee sign
The light so bright it'd almost make you blind
I get lost in sweet girls singing along
Bussers rollin' on the silver dome
Seeing the world a long long way from home
And oh, the heart will wander
Beyond that wild blue yonder
But when I get lost in the noise
Like a whipser I hear the voice of a boy
Oh
It's runnin' through my blood
It's the place i got my roots
It's the fire thats in my soul
It's the mud that's on my boots
Oh, Illinois
Oh, the heart will wander
Beyond that wild blue yonder
But when I get lost in the noise
Like a whipser I hear the voice of a boy
Oh, from Illinois
From Illinois
Oh, Illinois
Takes me back to Illinois
Takin' me home, takin' me home
Takin' me home
I come from the heart of the heartland
Illinois
