Mm-mm, bum-bum-bum-bum, bum-bum-bum-bum
Yeah, okay, two, okay, you two, we're gonna, we're gonna talk this out alright? State you go first

Okay, hey, hey (What's up?) , I'm just a state, okay?
I'm tryna handle my local budgeting
Without you encumbering
Okay, hey, what I'd like to say-say
I'm the big federal government (Yup)
Of this nation I'm runnin' in (Woo)
Okay, hey, we'll make no mistake-'stake
We all think you great-great
That ain't no debate-'bate
It's a balance of power
Between you and ours
That keep this country runnin' right
So to make you lead we might have to link up

(Link up) Federal laws more than state needs
(Link up) Both of us on the same team
(Link up) Me into you and three
(Link up) Link up, yeah
(Link up) State and fed on the same team
(Link up) As when federal is on [?]
(Link up) Me into you and three
(Link up) Link up, yeah

I feel like I shouldn't have to listen to you (Yeah)
I feel like you shouldn't have to listen to me (Yeah)
But when yo' courts can't agree
You gotta come to mind 'cause they know what's supreme (Okay)
But as a state I can do my own thing
Or make needed change from local voting
'Cause back in 1788 we decided we wasn't gon' have no king
Woah, woah, woah, no king or queen?
But somebody's gotta run this thing
And give us a leader through fair election
And keep Utah from invadin' Texas
Look, and if I'm not there (Yup)
Who's gonna handle the foreign affairs?
As long as we have independence
They'll keep our people protected (Ooh-ooh)
Don't matter what state you rest in
Deep down we'll still all connect it

(Link up) Federal laws more than state needs
(Link up) Both of us on the same team
(Link up) Me into you and three
(Link up) Link up, yeah
(Link up) State and fed on the same team
(Link up) As when federal is on [?]
(Link up) Me into you and three
(Link up) Link up, yeah
