lyrics

Seventy miles from waterloo, 26 from cedar falls
Iowa may not have mountains but if it did I’d climb them all
Just to see the graffiti galleries pass by on endless trains
Surrounded by the fields of corn I’m stuck in the same frame
Felt like Don Quixote when I first drove in
So I spent most the day fighting windmills but I just couldn’t win
There’s more rivers than hills, but that’s not saying much
Cause the two that I counted didn’t really count as such

But when I see those lights, I know I’ve got it made
Cause these are the nights that I’d never trade
At the 505 in Iowa-fuckin-city
Feel so alive and the girls are so pretty here
It’s a night of firsts but this won’t be my last
Cheers to us and have another glass

Pancheros is on my list of things to do
Hit up the one downtown been there since 1992
Tailgate the game and get lost alone
Cause i just stumbled off all on my own
Something about this place it doesn’t belong
In a state full of corn where did they go wrong
Cause they know how to party, and they do it right
As long as the hawkeyes win it’ll be a good night

But when I see those lights, I know I’ve got it made
Cause these are the nights that I’d never trade
At the 505 in Iowa-fuckin-city
Feel so alive and the girls are so pretty here
It’s a night of firsts but this won’t be my last
Cheers to us and have another glass

See you in the morning, that's what we'll say
See you in the morning
Yeah I'll see you in the morning
Cause I won’t remember today

At the 505 in Iowa-fuckin-city
Feel so alive and the girls are so pretty here
It’s a night of firsts but this won’t be my last
Cheers to us and have another glass
