	Story Behind the Song Inspired by a flight over the midwest, when the video screen showed a map of our course over Omaha and Salt Lake City. I later observed that we never wrote a song with the word "baby" in it, and Carl said "let's keep it that way"- so it's in every verse. Mike Baumer sings and plays lead guitar, and Kenny Pritchett offers two fine guitar tracks- including a smokin' slide. Lyrics Well, I woke up this morning and I said today's the day There isn't anything around here standing in my way My baby left me yesterday, today she broke my heart And now I know I'm headed West, but not so very far. I'm leaving Omaha for Salt Lake City the stars above never looked so pretty I tried before but this time I'm ready And I'm going out there to stay, and it's only two states away. Nebraska's not the kind of place a man like me belongs I know a lot of things, and I am learning right from wrong My baby left me yesterday, but now I'm havin' fun Bruce Springsteen wrote a song about it, now I'm born to run. Omaha, Omaha say goodbye Salt Lake City, tell me no lies Omaha, Omaha made me cry I don't know if I'll make it, but I know I'm gonna try Now Utah is a state where everybody wants to go They're rafting in the rapids and they're skiing in the snow My baby left me yesterday, soon everyone will see I'll settle down with a Mormon girl and raise a family.
