Blossom Dearie - Rhode Island Is Famous for You lyrics

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 Lou-siana Gophers from Montana And spuds from Idaho They plow land in the cow land of Missour-a Where most beef meant for roast beef seems to grow Grand canyons come from Colorad-a Gold comes from Nevada Divorces also do And you, you come from Rhode Island Little old Rhode Island is famous for you Pencils come from Pennsylvania Vest from Vest Virginia and Tents from Tent-esee They know mink where they grow mink in Wyo-mink A camp chair in New Hamp-chair, that's for me And minnows come Minnesota Coats come from Dakota But why should you be blue? For you, you come from Rhode Island Don't let them ride Rhode Island It's famous for you
