In South Carolina

Kimbrely Gunter 1987 (Ohio)



The weather outside is sunny
And we really need your money.
It has now been an hour
And the weather has turned sour.
It's a great day in South Carolina.

The tourists are enjoying...
Small businesses are thriving...
Locals are living...
Transplants are arriving...
It's a great day in South Carolina.

Charlestown Landing is historic.
Middleton Place is euphoric.
Cypress Gardens is squishy.
The aquarium is fishy.
It's a great day in South Carolina.

The Gamecocks are warring and crowing with their fists.
Filming movies and TV shows gives us a few new twists.
The Tigers are growling and prowling for their prey.
The College of Charleston and Citadel are very monumental and celebrated today.
It's a great day in South Carolina.
