A short song
about all the sights one sees while driving I-80 through Iowa. Anybody here know if this is true?

If the song was about the drive on I-70 across Kansas from Kansas City to Denver it would be just windmills and wheat in the winter, and just windmills and dirt in the summer. And it would be an 5 hour song at 85 MPH. I guess there some cattle feed lots to add to the olfactory changes. Once you are past east Colorado there are some mountains to see finally. You can drive for 2.5 hours, stop to pee and get some road food, drive for 2.5 hours and stop, and swear you are at the same rest stop as 5 hours before. It is the exact same place.

It isn't far off, like any other parody.

Yup, true. I didn't think more corn could exist anywhere else...until I got to Nebraska.
