Connecticut

Connecticut - Judy Garland

I know the spot peaceful and fair

I'd be so happy if I were there

No matter where I'd chance to be

Connecticut is the place for me

Miss every lake miss every hill

Even in dreams I think of them still

And when you see the new look green

Connecticut is the place to be

Village green and childhood scenes

Are things I remember yes

Land of dreams and moonlit streams

How close to heaven can you get

Nights full of stars hearts full of joy

Paradise for girl and a boy

I guess it suits me to a tee

Connecticut is the place for me to be

Connecticut is the place for me

It's such a great state for a late date

With a maid waiting just for you

And every Yale guy is a male guy

Through and through

It's an outstanding state

It's never hum-drum dating some chum

With his arm strumming a guitar

You'll find the chicks slicker

And the Nicks' quicker by far

It's such a great state

It's spick and spanner than old Montana

And Indiana can't rate

The nights are longer

And the men are stronger

So linger longer and wait

'Cause it's a great great great great state

Dined in Capri thought it was swell

Sampled some wine in a Naples hotel

Though I was showed to road to Rome

Connecticut still will be my home

Italy was fun to see

And really gave me quite a boon

Had a spree in gay Paris

Those mademoiselles were mighty cute-Trés zut

Circled the globe dozens of times

Seen all it's wonders known all it's climes

I've searched it with a fine tooth comb

And found that I only have one home sweet home

Connecticut wil always be my home sweet home
