730 Miles To New York City

2060 to L.A. But it is just 280 miles to Nashville, Tennessee Where I can see the country stars of the Grand Ol' Opry Like Faith, Alan, Tim and Toby I have gone mostly country But I don't wear those boots I have gone mostly country My blonde hair is showing its roots Gone country...There I go I never really liked Madonna I tried to Vouge But I hurt myself Not much for punk But I love the Ramones My bedroom wall was covered Mom never needed to wallpaper Floor and ceiling with the faces Of 80's rock and roll Poison made me want to talk dirty Winger, I was only seventeen, but didn't care Skid Row said I was a youth gone wild And Bon Jovi said I gave love a bad name Don't get me wrong I still melt When Jon Bon Jovi flashes that smile And sings me his song But when Toby Keith asks me who's your daddy (OH baby!) Make me think naughty thoughts And makes me have a evil grin Makes me want to lay my hands on him Sorry, I guess I am torn They both make my mouth drool But I am no fool I may love country But my first love Comes from New Jersey

Good descriptive wording in this presentation. Your rhyming is also quite good.
