Every state has something its rotary club can boast of;
Some product that the state produces the most of.
Rhode islandis little but oh my ,
it has a product anyone would buy!
Copper comes from arizona,
peaches come from Georgia, and
lobsters come from Maine,
The wheat fields are the
sweet fields of Nebraska
and Kansas gets bonanzas from the
grain,
Old whiskey
comes from old Kentucky
ain't the country lucky?
New Jersey gives us glue.....
And you, You come from Rhode Island, and
little old Rhode island is famous for you
Cotton, comes from Loosiana, gophers from Montana
and spuds from Idaho.
They plough land in the cow land of Missoura,
where most beef meant for roast beef seems to grow
Grand Canyons, come from Colorada, gold comes from nevada,
divorces also do.
And you, you come from Rhode Island, and little Rhode island, is famous for you
Pencils, come from Pencilvania,
vests from vest-virginia, and
tents from tent-a-see
They know mink where they grow mink
in Wyomink
a camp-chair in new hampchair that's for me
And minnows, come from Minnowsota, coats from DaCoata
but why should you be blue?
For you, you come from Rhode Island, and little Rhode island, is famous for you
