Fifty Nifty United States

Lyrics: Ray Charles

Fifty nifty United States from thirteen original colonies
Fifty nifty stars in the flag that billows so beautifully in the breeze

Each individual state
Contributes a quality that is great
Each individual state
Deserves a bow, we salute them now

Fifty nifty United States from thirteen original colonies
Shout 'em, scout 'em, tell all about 'em
One by one 'til we've given a name to every state in the U.S.A.

Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut
Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana
Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan
Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada
New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio
Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas
Utah, Vermont, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia, Wisconsin, Wyoming

North, south, east, west
In our calm, objective opinion [name of home state] is the best of the...

Fifty nifty United States from thirteen original colonies
Shout 'em, scout 'em, tell all about 'em
One by one 'til we've given a day to every state in the good old U.S.A.
