Fly Over States
Neil Thrasher, Michael William Dulaney
A couple guys in first class on a flight
From New York to Los Angeles
Kinda making small talk killing time
Flirting with the flight attendants
Thirty thousand feet above, could be Oklahoma
Just a bunch of square cornfields and wheat farms
Man it all looks the same
Miles and miles of back roads and highways
Connecting little towns with funny names
Who'd want to live down there in the middle of nowhere
They've never drove through Indiana
Met the men who plowed that earth
Planted that seed, busted his ass for you and me
Or caught a harvest moon in Kansas
They'd understand why God made those fly over states
I bet that mile long Santa Fe freight train engineer's seen it all
Just like that flatbed cowboy stacking US steel on a 3-day haul
Roads and rails under their feet
Yeah that sounds like a first class seat
On the plains of Oklahoma
Where they windshield sunset in your eyes
Like a watercolor painted sky
You'd think heaven's doors have opened
You'll understand why God made
Those fly over states
Take a ride across the badlands
Feel that freedom on your face
Breathe in all that open space
Meet a girl from Amarillo
You'll understand why God made
Why you'd want to plant your stakes
In those fly over states
Have you ever been through Indiana
On the plains of Oklahoma
Take a ride

Flertando com as comissárias de bordo
Thirty thousand feet above, could be Oklahoma
Trinta mil pés acima, poderia ser Oklahoma
Just a bunch of square cornfields and wheat farms
Apenas um monte de campos de milho e fazendas de trigo
Man it all looks the same
Cara, tudo parece a mesma coisa
Miles and miles of back roads and highways
Milhas e milhas de estradas secundárias e rodovias
Connecting little towns with funny names
Conectando pequenas cidades com nomes engraçados
Who'd want to live down there in the middle of nowhere
Quem iria querer viver lá no meio do nada?
They've never drove through Indiana
Eles nunca dirigiram por Indiana
Met the men who plowed that earth
Conheceram os homens que araram aquela terra
Planted that seed, busted his ass for you and me
Plantaram aquela semente, deram duro por você e por mim
Or caught a harvest moon in Kansas
Ou viram uma lua de colheita em Kansas
They'd understand why God made those fly over states
Eles entenderiam por que Deus fez esses estados de passagem
I bet that mile long Santa Fe freight train engineer's seen it all
Aposto que o engenheiro do trem de carga Santa Fe, de uma milha de comprimento, já viu de tudo
Just like that flatbed cowboy stacking US steel on a 3-day haul
Assim como aquele cowboy de caminhão carregando aço dos EUA em uma viagem de 3 dias
Roads and rails under their feet
Estradas e trilhos sob seus pés
Yeah that sounds like a first class seat
Sim, isso parece um assento de primeira classe
On the plains of Oklahoma
Nas planícies de Oklahoma
Where they windshield sunset in your eyes
Onde o pôr do sol no para-brisa está em seus olhos
Like a watercolor painted sky

Roads and rails under their feet
Carreteras y vías bajo sus pies

Where they windshield sunset in your eyes
Donde el atardecer del parabrisas está en tus ojos
Like a watercolor painted sky
