Fix It Up Together

Cornfields shinin' at the break of day

Skyline sparklin' on the lake, OK

Route 66 and a small-town square

Every corner of this state, I got people there

From the lake to the river, Rockford down to Cairo

Deep dish and a tenderloin, that's the way we go

Illinois, I'm stayin', this is where I'm from

Fix it up together, the best is yet to come

Lincoln walked here, the Cubs and the Sox

Shawnee hills and the Mississippi rocks

We ain't perfect, but we ain't done

Fix the bills and keep the kids and everyone

From the lake to the river, Rockford down to Cairo

Deep dish and a tenderloin, that's the way we go

Illinois, I'm stayin', this is where I'm from

Fix it up together, the best is yet to come

North and south, city and farm

One state, arm in arm

Early votin', all the way down

Illinois, turn it around

From the lake to the river, Rockford down to Cairo

Deep dish and a tenderloin, that's the way we go

Illinois, I'm stayin', this is where I'm from

Fix it up together, the best is yet to come
