Pennsylvania Is...

Jackson met a girl in a valley town
Fell into a teenage love she'd grow to hate
He's in prison now since he beat her down
He got her pregnant and she made it go away
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Pennsylvania, oh,
Pennsylvania
I got a card today from a girl
I knowShe used to live alone in
Philadelphia
Had to leave the state for a choice she made
She says she feels just like a hostage in her home
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Pennsylvania,
Pennsylvania
You can close your eyes
You can fall and die
You can make your laws will make it go away
You can close your eyes
But you can't make it go away
Yeah, you can't make it go away
Though I've got a call from my
Uncle Mike
He said he left his wife and he's not going back
Said she changed her mind about a desire child
I asked him if he wants a place mat or a wife
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Pennsylvania, yeah, yeah
Pennsylvania is wrong
Hey, hey, hey
