Great American Girl

Great American Girl
You have fifty boon pearls.
Great American Girl
You are liberty's skirl.
Great American Girl
You have fifty boon pearls.
Great American Girl
You are freedom's whirl. (Chorus, repeat once)

(Spoken)
From Alabama to Wyoming
You smile and swing.
From Minnesota to Mississippi
You flow and link.
Colorado paints you golden,
Delaware studs you diamond,
Florida gave you sunshine.
Arizona clad its cotton.
Utah gifts you beehive lips.
Idaho blesses your gem teeth.
Nevada spun your silver braid.
Georgia tints your peach cheeks.

Chorus

(Spoken)
From Vermont to Virginia
You bust line swells.
From N'Dakota to New Jersey
Your garden scents.
Hampshire studs your granite eyes,
Kansas Oh your sunflower face,
Tennessee made you a volunteer.
Montana earned you great treasure.
Rhode Island mould you an oceanic power.
Maine refreshes you with pine air.
Washington paints you evergreen.
New York raises you an Empire.

Chorus

(Recitation)

The Star Spangled Banner's your best verse.
Stars and Stripes is your favorite dress.
On July 4th you celebrate your birthday,
July 20th, man on moon, your best day.

Chorus
