Pine Tree State of Mind
If you like trees, well we have plenty
There's oak and hemlock, pine and birch
Tallest thing in every town is
The steeple on the Baptist church
Rolling hills give way to mountains
All ground down by glacial ice
Baxter owned the tallest one and
Gifted us his paradise
The winter nights they last forever
Wind so sharp it causes pain
But I won't leave 'cause then I'll mis when
All the lilacs bloom... in Maine
Denmark, Mexico and China
Don't know why they're named that way
Peru and Poland, up near Denmark
See them all in just one day
It won't take long you'll like the accent
People tell you what they mean
On your way to Moody's Diner
You should stop at LL Bean
The winter nights they last forever
Wind so sharp it causes pain
But I won't leave 'cause then I'll miss when
All the lilacs bloom... in Maine
Downeast is a long way up there
The Airline Road can take you there
Once you smell the wood stoves burning
Hurry to the Fryeburg Fair
We once were part of Massachusetts
But really couldn't stay that way
Now we take some time to warm up
To people who are from away
The winter nights they last forever
Wind so sharp it causes pain
But I won't leave 'cause then I'll miss when
All the lilacs bloom... in Maine
The Old Port has so many restaurants
Close the Falmouth-by-the-Sea
We're pretty crowded in the summer
'Cause it's The Way That Life Should Be
The winter nights they last forever
Wind so sharp it causes pain
But I won't leave 'cause then I'll miss when
All the lilacs bloom... in Maine
There's oak and hemlock, pine and birch
Tallest thing in every town is
The steeple on the Baptist church
Rolling hills give way to mountains
All ground down by glacial ice
Baxter owned the tallest one and
Gifted us his paradise
The winter nights they last forever
Wind so sharp it causes pain
But I won't leave 'cause then I'll mis when
All the lilacs bloom... in Maine
Denmark, Mexico and China
Don't know why they're named that way
Peru and Poland, up near Denmark
See them all in just one day
It won't take long you'll like the accent
People tell you what they mean
On your way to Moody's Diner
You should stop at LL Bean
The winter nights they last forever
Wind so sharp it causes pain
But I won't leave 'cause then I'll miss when
All the lilacs bloom... in Maine
Downeast is a long way up there
The Airline Road can take you there
Once you smell the wood stoves burning
Hurry to the Fryeburg Fair
We once were part of Massachusetts
But really couldn't stay that way
Now we take some time to warm up
To people who are from away
The winter nights they last forever
Wind so sharp it causes pain
But I won't leave 'cause then I'll miss when
All the lilacs bloom... in Maine
The Old Port has so many restaurants
Close the Falmouth-by-the-Sea
We're pretty crowded in the summer
'Cause it's The Way That Life Should Be
The winter nights they last forever
Wind so sharp it causes pain
But I won't leave 'cause then I'll miss when
All the lilacs bloom... in Maine
