Where's that gal with the red dress on
Some folks called her Dinah
Stole my heart away from me
Way down in Louisiana

Take me back to Tulsa
I'm too young to marry
Take me back to Tulsa
I'm too young to marry.

Quite a few actually. The bands Dredg, Trapt, and The Ataris all wrote songs about the small town I'm from.

The Steely Dan song 'My old school' is about my alma mater.
