Lyrics Lucy Spraggan – In A State
Text:
I was stung by the sting of the worst of bees in New Orleans
I was scared and unprepared but right there I was happy
The warm sunset I won’t forget
You took my breath it was so perfect
We got the best quality for less in Texas
Two sunset straight
We learned its a state you don’t mess with
Papa John’s with the TV on
Back when summer just begun
My few but favourite memories of Texas
I wore a cowboy hat reading a country map in New Mexico
We had «I think we’re lost» silence, but I’m the co-pilot
That’s the best for you, you know
Halfway down the inter state
You left your phone at that picnic place
I kept a cool face while you were irate in New Mexico
And maybe one day you’ll come to my town singing
I love you oh oh oh
I’ll look at you with that same old smile and I’ll say
Where d’you wanna go oh oh oh?
I saw the world behind the wheel
I learnt how to feel in Arizona
I saw the stars felt the change
If I hardly felt the same and I show’d ya
The camp site or maybe the inn
I don’t know where this one begins
I just know my heart lies beneath the stars in Arizona
And maybe one day you’ll come to my town singing
I love you oh oh oh
Where d’you wanna go oh oh oh?
I guess I can’t sing about all the states but in your country they abbreviate
I went to FL and GA and LA and TX and NM and AZ and should I say Z
CO and KS and MO and IL and IN, Ohio and WV
I went to VA and NC and MD and DE and PA and MA and NYC
I last saw you by lake
Was good to see your face in Pennsylvania
Was such a beautiful day when you tried to explain all the truth and that y’know
I told ya I’d never miss the chance under any single circumstance
Again I’d see your face in the United States of America
