She's a regional girl

Come to the big city

Give it a whirl

She thinks that she can make it

She thinks that she can take it

I think she's gonna end up makin' burgers in a basement

She's a regional girl



He's a regional guy

Come to the big city give it a try

He wants to be a mover

Yea, he wants to shake it up

I think he's gonna end up pourin' Pepsi in a cup

'Cause it's a regional lie

It's a regional lie



Mary Mary, Mississippi, Indiana Jones

Did you think that you could really make it on your own?

A singin' Whoa oh oh oh

Whoa oh oh oh

Eddie, Eddie, good and ready, now you got your chance

Try to keep the little buggers playin' with your pants

A singin' Whoa oh oh oh

Whoa oh oh oh



It's a regional lie

The grass is always green

And the coke is purified

You wanna hit the big time

Yea, you wanna strike it rich

I think you're gonna end up bakin' burgers for some bitch
