Best best ballads that refer to a US State


Recently, there was a long discussion focused on the business merits of one US state.  It got me thinking about getting back to music and the ballads that refer to so many great places in the US.  So do you have a list (top 3-5) of favorite ballads that refer to a US state?

My list:
1) California Dreaming,  Mamas & Papas
2) Take Me Home Country Road (Almost heaven, West Virginia), John Denver
3) Sweet Home Alabama, Lynyrd Skynyrd
4) Please come to Boston (man from Tennessee), Dave Loggins
5) Colder Weather (Colorado), Zak Brown Band

Perry Como easily wins this contest with "Delaware"...

 

"Delaware"
Oh, what did Delaware boy what did Delaware?

What did Delaware boy, what did Delaware?
She wore a brand New Jersey, she wore a brand New Jersey
She wore a brand New Jersey, that's what she did wear

Oh, why did California, why did Californ?
Why did California, was she all alone?
She called to say Hawaii, she called to say How are ya
She called to say how are ya, that's why she did phone

Oh, what did Mississip boy, what did Missi sip?
What did Missi sip boy, through her pretty lips
She sipped a Minnesota, she sipped a mini soda
She sipped a mini soda, that's what she did sip

Oh, where has Oregon boy, where as Ora gone?
If you want Alaska, I'll ask her where she's gone
She went to pay her Texas, she went to pay her taxes
She went to pay her Taxes, that's where she has gone

Oh, how did Wisconsin boy, she stole a NeBras-ky
Too bad that Arkan-sas boy, and so did Tenne-see
It made poor Flora-di, it made poor Flora-di you see
She died in Missouri boy, she died in Misery

Oh, what did Delaware, boy what did Delaware
What did Delaware boy, what did Delaware

@notlistening - yeah, I remember that 'Della wear' song very well; I just never realized that the hit version of it was by Perry Como! 

Most persons that work at that comes out with ":MOON LIGHT IN VERMONT "

As do 95 % of people that lived at the time ! Frank Sinatra has a good one on here, as

have many great jazz artists .
