Constitution State

Prompt

New England folk-pop, bright acoustic guitars, piano, light drums and a warm choir-like chorus. An anthem for the US state of Connecticut, proud, warm, radio quality, clear English diction. [Vocals: female lead vocal] [Lyrics] [Verse 1] Maples burning red and gold along the Litchfield hills Tall ships resting at Mystic where the salt wind never stills Steeples over village greens, stone walls running long Connecticut, you're old and small and steady as a song [Chorus] Constitution State, you wrote the rules we live by Mountain laurel on the ridge, a robin in the sky From Hartford down the river to the Sound's long shore Connecticut, the more I leave, I love you more [Verse 2] New Haven on a Friday night, the pizza ovens glow Hartford where the insurance towers watch the river flow Lighthouses at Stonington, a ferry at the pier Four seasons and a thousand towns, I'm happy to be here [Chorus] Constitution State, you wrote the rules we live by Mountain laurel on the ridge, a robin in the sky From Hartford down the river to the Sound's long shore Connecticut, the more I leave, I love you more [Bridge] He who transplanted still sustains, the old seal says it true Connecticut, my roots run deep in you [Chorus] Constitution State, you wrote the rules we live by Mountain laurel on the ridge, a robin in the sky From Hartford down the river to the Sound's long shore Connecticut, the more I leave, I love you more
