Beautiful Nebraska Beautiful Nebraska, peaceful prairie land Laced with many rivers and hills of sand Dark green valleys cradled in the earth, Rain and sunshine bring abundant birth, Beautiful Nebraska, as you look around, You will find a rainbow reaching to the ground; All these wonders by the Master’s hand; Beautiful Nebraska land. We are so proud of this state where we live, There is no place that has so much to give. Beautiful Nebraska, as you look around, You will find a rainbow reaching to the ground; All these wonders by the Master’s hand. Beautiful Nebraska land. Words by Jim Fras and Guy G. Miller

"There is No Place Like Nebraska" -------------------------------------------------------- There is no place like Nebraska Dear old Nebraska U Where the girls are the fairest The boys are the squarest Of any school that I knew There is no place like Nebraska Where they're all true blue We'll all stick together in all kinds of weather For dear old Nebraska U.
