Bear, bison, and whooping crane
The blowing wind and falling leaves
Blooming bulbs and honey bees

Hardwood trees growing tall
The rivers great and creeks so deep
The golden crops of summer wheat
Ozark mountains and prairie grass
Carp, paddlefish, and large mouth bass
Whether waterfall or large rock cliffs
These are a few of the Midwest gifts
