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

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
