The Young Republic - Girl From The Northern States lyrics

I was not troubled by the distance of your friend But she got close to Tennessee But she won't be back again Was it the thought of love or the rolling hills that she could not take You know the sweeter air is just too fair for a girl from the northern states The honesty of lucid tongues to you i will not preach The city can't stake dying claims to the kind face of southern speech As soon as you can please get past baltimore Cause you'll never see nothing as green as virginia flying past your door Don't go for coffee in our houses You've seen her best it's emotionless noise Slow down take a look at your hometown That's all She wrote you back she said she's sorry that you couldn't come up north And now she's majoring in post-modern sin with some guy you've never heard of before
