Minnesota Girl

They say that everyone has three loves in their life. “Minnesota Girl” is about finding the final one which comes at a cost—you can only discover who is good for you through experiencing who isn’t.

Well I’ve had me some Wisconsin 

Its been a few years since its past

We had a summer shared together 

Being a Packers fan wasn’t something I could get past 

Well I’ve had me some Chicago 

We met at college in a dorm 

We had a night that lasted somewhere 

Between the time I found her room and my out the door 


Oh, let me meet someone 

Who’s accent is my same one 

Who loves to watch some football  

On Sundays 

Oh, I don’t need no one 

Who doesn’t wanna just have fun 

But having staying in as an option 

I’ve been waiting on the world 

To tell me where I’ll find 

My Minnesota girl 

I met a beauty from Tacoma 

But those mountains didn’t show

The love between her and boyfriend 

She couldn’t chose and didn’t know which way to go 

I met a pistol from Nebraska

She said she didn’t like to dance 

Because her parents didn’t like her 

Dancin’ with somebody who was playing in a band


Oh, let me meet someone 

Whose accent is just like mine 

Who loves to watch some football

On Sundays 

Oh, I don’t need no one 

Who doesn’t wanna just have fun 

But having staying in as an option 

I’ve been waiting on the world 

To tell me where I’ll find 

My Minnesota girl 

And all this time of back and forth 

I know my heart is true 

I’m waiting for the one out there 

Who’ll say the words “I do”

Oh, let me meet someone 

Whose accent is just like mine 

Who loves to watch some football

On Sundays 

Oh, I don’t need no one 

Who doesn’t wanna just have fun 

But having staying in as an option 

I’ve been waiting on the world 

To tell me where I’ll find 

My Minnesota girl 

Minnesota girl 

Minnesota girl 

Minnesota girl 

Minnesota girl 

Minnesota girl 

Minnesota girl
