Sometimes I think about the Magnolia tree
Then I remember the hill by the church
Where we would ride our bikes, and dream we could fly
And then my teenage dreams come rushing by
When I was young thought the world would be mine
I was unstoppable, I was on the grind
But as the years went by, I nearly drowned
And now I realize and say it loud
I blame it on the Yellowhammer State
You sucked me in and you bled me dry
You're just a piece of graveyard real estate
I should've gone to LA, that's where dreams are made
I blame it on the YellowhammerState
Yellowhammer State
Sometimes I think about our little blue house
Then I remember those long summer days
We'd pack our bags and take a camping trip
Those were my favorite, I could never forget
As I grew older, I grew lonelier too
I was that weirdo girl that everyone knew
2008 Was such a sad, sad year
My only friend was my guitar I held near
I blame it on the Yellowhammer State
You sucked me in and you bled me dry
You're just a piece of graveyard real estate
I should've gone to LA, that's where dreams are made
I blame it on the Yellowhammer State
Yellowhammer State
Yellowhammer State
Yellowhammer State
I used to think my dreams were over, over
I've been so stuck, like I'm trapped in a ghost town
But if I gave up, my regrets would make me older
It's when your dream's alive that keeps you moving forward
I blame it on the Yellowhammer State
You sucked me in and you bled me dry
You're just a piece of graveyard real estate
I should've gone to LA, that's where dreams are made
I blame it on the Yellowhammer State
Yellowhammer State
Yellowhammer State
Yellowhammer State
