Danger waits in Indiana Like sun on the street It won't break in and steal It comes suddenly A blade swung the wrong way, a slip on the hay Death in the everyday - Accidents, they say The sky doesn't care And the corn just sways There's a heat in Indiana That presses on the day The glass sits full of water A tulip poplar prays The cars and times Have changed now, The steel frame passed away But in my mind it stays same as same as same I want to go to Indiana Where I held my bravery high As cast iron bulls chased us To the ruined silo pile But a silo too can be deadly If you sink into the grain What is it about you that's sewn into my brain You smile at disaster And set the plow back to the plain, And I like you that way
