Midwestern Boy Lyrics & Chords By Kathy Kallick
Come to me, midwestern boy
Summer skin, warm as the corn
One slow dance on a moonlight beach
Dressed in just what you were born in
Tall and lanky by the lake
Smilin' sideways, a freckled face
Wait for me, midwestern boy
And I will meet you in that place
Play those songs that tell a story
Great beginnings and the end of childhood
What a time to come of age
Free love and the war a-raging
I don't know the plans you made
Gone to college or to dodge the draft
I just needed someone to run to
Until I finally turned eighteen
[Do you remember when ... ]
Perhaps the east coast or the west
Just anywhere that's not so in between
I'll see you, midwestern boy
There's still time to have a dream
Fireflies light up the dark
Skin so brown and hearts so open
Now close your eyes, midwestern boy
And I will be with you tonight
