Heidi Merrill - Cornhusker Strong

This is a song for Nebraska Husker fans! I'm proud of where I'm from!

A tribute to the Cornhuskers. Go Big Red!

Written by Heidi Merrill, Jeff Cohen, and Tamara Stewart

Lyrics:

I was born in the heartland
Home grown and proud
A little dirt on my hands
Two feet on the ground
I was raised on real life
And an honest day's work
Under the big sky
I planted dreams in the earth

Well the good Lord gave me wings to fly
So I packed my bags but never said goodbye
Wherever I am, I'm forever where I come from
I'm Cornhusker Strong
Down any road I'm on
In this wild wild world out here, I keep plowing along
Long gone, but Cornhusker Strong

I walk the streets of the city
A million people alone
Yeah I don't mind the spotlight
But there aint nothing like home

Well the good Lord gave me wings to fly
So I packed my bags but never said goodbye
Wherever I am, I'm forever where I come from
I'm Cornhusker Strong
Down any road I'm on
In this wild wild world out here, I keep plowing along
Long gone, but Cornhusker Strong

Holler if you hear me!
Follow if you feel me!
Bartender beer me!
Louder, lounder louder!

I'm Cornhusker Strong
Down any road I'm on
I'm Cornhusker Strong
Down any road I'm on
In this wild wild world out here, I keep plowing along
Long gone, but
Cornhusker Strong

Great song, just stumbled upon Heidi Merill's music from a documentary of AI called "next world Predicting The Future" and how it can predict whether or not someone will have a hit song or become a popular artist
