State Lines Lyrics

You always take me by surprise, like when it rains in California
Yeah, you do
You got a crazy sense of humour, dry as the sands in Arizona
You know you do

But I love everything about you
Yeah I love all the little things

Like when you roll your eyes like a cool new Yorker
Driving across the Mason Dixon line
I've gotta smile
'Cause you're warm like a night in a southern summer
Sweet like a taste of California wine
I love crossing your state lines, state lines
State lines

You can cry like the Mississippi, when we're just watching a movie
It's kinda cute
You sweep me away like a hurricane, over Louisiana
And I let you, yeah

'Cause I love everything about youeco brva
Yeah I love all the little things

Like when you roll your eyes like a cool new Yorker
Driving across the Mason Dixon line
I've gotta smile
'Cause you're warm like a night in a southern summer
Sweet like a taste of California wine
I love crossing your state lines, state lines

And I'm learning everyday, a little bit more and more with every state
All the little things

Like when you roll your eyes like a cool new Yorker
Driving across the Mason Dixon line
I've gotta smile
'Cause you're warm like a night in a southern summer
Sweet like a taste of California wine
I love crossing your state lines, state lines
Your state lines
State lines
