Taylor Swift 'Florida!!!' Song Lyrics

You can beat the heat if you beat the charges too
They said I was a cheat, I guess it must be true
And my friends all smell like weed or little babies
And this city reeks of driving myself crazy

Little did you know your home's really only a town you're just a guest in
So you work your life away just to pay for a timeshare down in Destin
Florida, is one hell of a drug
Florida, can I use you?

The hurricane was my name when it came
I got drunk and I dared it to wash me away
Barricaded in the bathroom with a bottle of wine
Well, me and my ghost, we had a hell of a time
Yes, I'm haunted but I'm feeling just fine

All my girls got their lace and their crimes and your cheating husband disappeared
Well, no one asks any questions here
So I did my best, too lay to rest
All of the bodies that have ever been on my body and in my mind
They sink into the swamp
Is that a bad thing to say in a song?
Little did you know your home's really only a town you'll get arrested
So you pack your life away just to wait out the s—t storm back in Texas

Florida, is one hell of a drug
Florida, can I use you?
I need to forget, so take me to Florida
I've got some regrets, I'll bury them in Florida

Tell me I'm despicable, say it's unforgivable
These dolls are beautiful
F—k me up, Florida
I need to forget, so take me to Florida
I've got some regrets, I'll bury them in Florida

Tell me I'm despicable, say it's unforgivable
What a crash, what a rush, f—k me up, Florida
It's one hell of a drug
It's one hell of a drug

Love loves me like this,
I don't want to resist,
So take me to Florida

Little did you know your home's really only a town you're just a guest in
So you work your life away just to pay for a timeshare down in Destin
Little did you know your home's really only a town you'll get arrested
So you pack your life away just to wait out the s—t storm back in Texas.

Florida, is one hell of a drug
Florida, can I use you up?
Florida is one hell of a drug
Florida, can you f—k me up?
