Nebraska i/nəˈbræskə/ is a state that lies in both the Great Plains and the Midwestern United States. Its state capital is Lincoln. Its largest city is Omaha, which is on the Missouri River. The state is crossed by many historic trails and was explored by the Lewis and Clark Expedition. The California Gold Rush brought the first large numbers of non-indigenous settlers to the area. Nebraska was admitted as the 37th state of the United States in 1867. The climate has wide variations between winter and summer temperatures, and violent thunderstorms and tornadoes are common. The state is characterized by treeless prairie, which is ideal for cattle-grazing. It is a major producer of beef, as well as pork, corn, and soybeans. The largest ancestry group claimed by Nebraskans is German American. The state also has the largest per capita population of Czech Americans among U.S. states.
Nebraska's name is derived from transliteration of the archaic Otoe words Ñí Brásge, pronounced [ɲĩbɾasꜜkɛ] (contemporary Otoe Ñí Bráhge), or the Omaha Ní Btháska, pronounced [nĩbɫᶞasꜜka], meaning "flat water", after the Platte River that flows through the state.

The lights were low but I was lower
The radio was playing somewhere else
The room was full of surface tension
I was only thinking ‘bout myself
No baby I

No baby I don’t want to see you hurt
You got them tears they fall like pearls
Blame it on gravity, yeah
Blame it on being a girl
The room was full of undertakers
Movers and martini shakers gone
The reaper left at 7:30
Took off in a taxi with a blonde
The difference between us
Is way down on the inside
It’s very tricky business

I was bound to do it my way wrong
Strum it on a telecaster
Sing it like a train disaster song
