This is a song about Florida - the place I was born and now call home again. There’s just something about the sunshine, the beaches, and the lifestyle here that feels like paradise. I had to write a song about it. Hope you like it. Floridahttps://soundclick.com/song/15250028[Intro] Whoa Whoa-oh-ah Whoa Whoa-oh-ah [Verse] Sunburnt sky, salt in the air Palm trees swayin’ everywhere All night long on a waterfront dock Flip-flops, tan lines, country rock [Pre-chorus] Thunder rollin’ every afternoon Rain comes fast, then it’s gone too soon [Chorus] Florida! Sunshine state of mind Florida! Where the sun always shines Palm trees, living wild and free That’s where I wanna be Florida Whoa, Florida [Verse] Jet skis cuttin’ through the waves Beach town buzz in the summer haze Line dancin’ and beachside bars Beach blonde girls and pickup cars [Pre-chorus] Manatees driftin’ slow downstream Livin’ that easy sunshine dream [Chorus] Florida! Sunshine state of mind Florida! Where the sun always shines Palm trees, living wild and free That’s where I wanna be Florida Whoa, Florida [Bridge] Hot nights, warm winds blow Swamp water risin’, gators on the go Beaches, boats, the tide rolls on Florida nights they go on and on and on [Interlude] [Final chorus] Florida! Sunshine state of mind Florida! Where the sun always shines Palm trees, living wild and free That’s where I wanna be Florida Whoa, Florida [Outro] Whoa Whoa-oh-ah Florida! Whoa Whoa-oh-ah Florida!

I think that the song is pretty good.
Florida is the title and is sung several times throughout the song, so to my ears the location is clearly established.
The songs appears to intend to be light-hearted and frolicking, and I think that it gets there.
Personally, I might have mentioned something about sitting in a lounger on a beach with an umbrella in my drink...
And maybe some geographical reference such as, "from the Keys to the Georgia line," (sea to shining sea)
But those are personal notes.
Pleasant tune.
