Awesome Pennsylvania song here! This may be a little befuddling to those outside of the Keystone State.

    ha..ha...it's better then Katy Perry's version..that song is annoying.
    These cuts are leaving creases. Trace the scars to fit the pieces, to tell the story, you don't need to say a word.

    Maybe they'll make a song about how badly our roads suck.

    Didn't know she made a song about Pennsylvania.

    That was, I think, the first line in the song - about potholes and the snow kicking our ass. It's amazing how excited I get when a particularly poor road gets patched up, even though I know the patch won't last.

    Maybe next time I should listen to the song. I'm humbled - who knew? :lol:

    Yeah, usually helps. ;)

    I'd like to have the Big 5 and whitewater rafting in Jim Thorpe in there, but overall they did a pretty good job.

    I just sent this to my brother. We grew up in PA and he still lives there. The song was definitely funny! :lol:

    I posted this on facebook for my wife's girlfreind, she's a N.Y. transplant. But she lived in Alaska and West Virgina before that so PA a Big step up.

    That song is by Sloppy Secondz. TThose guys live in the little coal town (Shamokin) right next to my little coal home town (Kulpmont). Shamokin is mentioned in the video, and also Centralia, the little coal town a few miles to the right which is now a GHOST town because there's a fire under it :shock:

    I gotta be honest, I'd be afraid to hear the lyrics to a song about Utah (my home state). Most likely, it would be ruthlessly picked on. :?

    That's what's funny about PA - we love our state, despite all its funny kinks & flaws. And we have a nice sense of humor about it.

    In that part about the funny names - Virginville, Bird-in-Hand, Intercourse... they forgot Climax!
