Sweet Home Minnesota
By Matt Shultz, summer 2006
Big wheels keep on turning
Carry me north to see my kinThere we'll eat a lot of junk food
Playing cards till 3 AM
Just beyond Reese's cabin
Turn at the Derr Crossing sign
Driveway's chock full of minivans
A tree limb just landed on mine
Sweet home Minnesota
Jumping off the pontoonSweet home Minnesota
Try not to land on a loonAmy said she caught a big fish
But I suspect it was litte
Instead for lunch we'll eat some pancakes
With Drewfus cooking at the griddle
Sweet home MinnesotaWhere the kids love to dance
Sweet home Minnesota
With strawberry weevils in our pants
The put boulders round the firepit
And built a staircase out of rocks
At midnight we can't find the children
'Cus they're still jumping off the dockSweet home Minnesota
Take a bath in the lakeSweet home Minnesota
The come grab some birthday cake
Sweet home Minnesota
Eating corn by the ear
Sweet home Minnesota
We hope to see you next year!
