Hellogoodbye - I Wanna See The States Lyrics
I wanna see the states
I wanna see the states
From the foggy Golden Gate
To the great Michigan lakes
I wanna see the states
Oh, how did you get to this town?
Was it where you were born or did you move around?
California's got places down south
We can lay in the sun on the beach
Drive up the Oregon coast
It's rocky and lighthouses dot it for most
Of the way through to Washington—Cascadian snow
On the tips of Olympian peaks
We were on to the future, the final frontier
While in Hawaii they're probably righteously
Surfing the worlds greatest breaks
But oh, Idaho
Has got the most respectable
Folks we know
We'll follow the Rockies and never stop roaming
Through Colorado, Montana, Wyoming
Down in New Mexico, we're eating green chilies
We'll hit the slopes up in Park City, Utah
Well, I wanna see the states
I wanna see the states
From Nevada's Vegas strange
To the wicked pines of Maine
I wanna see the states
Deep down in Texas, there's bright starry skies
Oklahomians all realize
That the sun never sets, we're just spinning around
Spun up to Kansas and clung to the ground
Slipped off the great plain to Southern Missouri
A creek and a sunset with no need to hurry
Just lazily drifting the great Mississippi
Through Tennessee, Arkansas and Kentucky
Down to the bayous of Louisiana
Glowing fireflies down in Alabama
Lit up your face like you're next to the moon
South Carolina, we'll be getting there soon
But Ohio
Has got the most festivals
And swing votes
Span Indiana right over the crossroads
In Illinois we had deep dish and hot dogs
Cornhuskers score a Nebraskan point and I
Hear some music from downtown Des Moines Iowa
And I wanna see the states
I wanna see the states
From Florida's southern cays
To the Delaware tax rates
I wanna see the states
I wanna dip my feet into the sand
I wanna dive into the Rio Grande
From the tall Virginian trees
To a sultry Georgian breeze
I wanna see the land
Fall in New Hampshire we stopped by the woods
With paid parking meters by rogue Robin Hoods
Freedom and unity o'er in Vermont
There's hope in Rhode Island to live how you want
To live how you like but I love Massachusetts
New York's got places where we can get loose
It's like everything you ever wanted at once
We'll go upstate, and we can stay there for months
We'll cut through the forests to Hartford, Connecticut
Can't help but love famous New Jersey etiquette
O'er in DC on the Capitol Hill
Historic decisions are being made still
The West Virginian mountains are wild and wonderful
North Carolina where autumn is colorful
Crabbing in Maryland, hoagies in Harrisburg
Pennsylvania declared us America
But it's far
It's far
It's far, how it's far
Between them
But take it form me, it's worth all the long car rides to see them
Just wait till you see Yosemite or New England
They'll make you believe in life, liberty, and freedom
Well, I wanna see the states
I wanna see the states
From the lakes of Minnesota
To the North and South Dakotas
I wanna see the states
I wanna dip my feet into the sand
I wanna dive into the Rio Grande
From the Arizona desert
To Wisconsin's snowy weather
I wanna see the land
I wanna see the land

I live in Kentucky, where there are horse farms in Lexington, coal mines in the mountains of Eastern Kentucky, bourbons being made at the Jim Beam headquarters in Bullitt County, horses deciding to duke it out for the Kentucky Derby, at Churchill Downs in Louisville, and breathtaking scenery far as the eye could see! From the mountains of Eastern Kentucky to the confluence of the Ohio and Mississippi rivers in Western Kentucky!
My state (arizona) was second to last😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐
Nice 👍🏼
Hoagies in......Harrisburg?
Clearly the Pennsylvania research was screwed up along the way.
I liked everyone's comment
#Ohio4life
It's a great song!!

Problems
Oregon took a bit of Idaho
Ohio looks like its gonna explode
Indiana is mushed by Ohio
Nevada's southern tip is shaped wrongly
C'mon, you didn't even say anything about South Dakota, you completely skipped it for a while. Wtf
My state got desert cmon why not grand canyon ,copper mine, Cattle herding
DC is in the wrong spot
I don't wanna see the states

I was born in Illinois
But trumps president so sprry
My state gets trees 😤
More educational than anything I learned in high school

+DjNinjaTurtleYT GO NJ!
Thank God we don't get another weed joke.
Why doesn't Minnesota have the Northwest Corner? It's part of the US...
North Carolina is a ripoff to New Hampshire.
First of all, they were both made the same time all the way in the 1790s, so be quiet you waste of space.
I get teary every time I hear this. I love it!
Eleanor Swan I’d knew you’d like this song!
Amazing Song! Just one problem: Oregon stole part of Idaho, which (I think) stole part of Wyoming.
I like NJ NY

In your thumbnail you have VT and NH swapped around...
One flaw I'm sure you know DC is not a state.

Absolutely love Forrest and the band Hellogoodbye! Fan since 2010(:
Way too much effort went into this for it to get barely 4000 views. It deserves more.
Andy Ford it should also have more likes.
Andy Ford yep
It's amazing to see Forrest still doing his thing, I've been such a huge fan of his since I was a teenager and he continues to astound me.
forrest's voice is fucking perfect.
