The Michael Stanley Band - In the Heartland Lyrics

It's 10:35 in the heartland
Make your move or you never will
The boys are out on Mayfield
Everybody dressed to kill
Some of them got raises
Some of them just got time
Some think about last season
Some think about life of crime

And I say hey baby
We're gonna have time tonight
Hey darling would you like a ride?
The girls says maybe
I've got a little time to kill and baby you feel like trying
It'd be just like flying
But nobody writes the names down
Just something that gotta go through
Yeah nothing seems to work out the way they planned
And some of them think about leavin'
Not many of them ever do
Give it one more try tonight in the heartland
In the heartland

On 105th at midnight
Brothers chose up sides
Dark is full of ladies
Long to be right
Well on the west side punks supply
And the rich boys come around
And ask them if they can leave it alone
Even though their growing prime

And I say hey baby
We're gonna have time tonight
Hey darling would you like a ride?
The girls says maybe
I've got a little time to kill and baby you feel like trying
It'd be just like flying
But nobody writes the names down
Just something that gotta go through
Yeah nothing seems to work out the way they planned
And some of them think about leavin'
Not many of them ever do
Give it one more try tonight in the heartland
In the heartland
But nobody writes the names down
Just something that gotta go through
Yeah nothing seems to work out the way they planned
And some of them think about leavin'
But not many of them ever do
Give it one more try tonight in the heartland

In the heartland
In the heartland
In the heartland
In the heartland
