John Pizzarelli - Rhode Island lyrics

rate me

Verse:

Every state has something, it's rotary club can boast

Of,

Some product that the state produces the most of,

Rhode Island is little, but oh my, it has a product

Anyone would buy.

Copper comes from Arizona

Peaches come from Georgia

Lobsters come from Maine

The wheat fields are the

Sweet fields of Nebraska

And Kansas gets bonanzas from the grain

Ol' whiskey comes from ol' Kentucky

Ain't the country lucky?

New Jersey gives us glue

And you come from Rhode Island

And Rhode Island is famous for you

Cotton comes from Louisiana

Gophers from Montana

And spuds from Idaho

They plow land in the cow land of Missouri

Where most beef meant for

Roast beef seems to grow

Grand canyons come from Colorado

Gold comes from Nevada

Divorces also do

And you come from Rhode Island

And little ol' Rhode Island is famous for you

Pencils come from Pennsylvania

Vests from Vest Virginia

Tents from Tentassee

They know mink where they grow mink in Wyomink

A camp chair in New Hampchair - That's for me

Minnows come from Minnowsota

Coats come from Dakota But why

Should you be blue?

For you - you come from Rhode Island

Little ol' Rhode Island is famous for you

You come from Rhode Island,

Ah don't let 'em ride Rhode Island

It's famous for you
