Indiana

Fare thee well now, Indiana

Your green land's been good to me

There I've travelled, there I've settled

There I've raised up my family

But the cord has never severed

And our longing each day has grown

So tomorrow I'll be leaving

For the land I call my home

All my friends, they say I'm crazy

Going back to such poverty

Americay is, so they say now

The land of opportunity

But the red deer run so freely

And the heron slowly flies

There are treasures from my homeland

That money cannot buy

And while the ship lies in the harbor

I will look back upon the shore

I feel sadness that I'm leaving

Your green land forevermore

And while the ship lies on the ocean

And each day we're out on the sea

All the dreams I've had for years now

Draw nearer to reality

So fare thee well now, Indiana

Your green land's been good to me

There I've travelled, there I've settled

There I've raised up my family

But the cord has never severed

And our longing each day has grown

So tomorrow I'll be leaving

For the land I call my home
