Does anyone know where I can download a copy of this song, not the words but the acutal song? I have checked everywhere I can think of and cant find it, not even ITunes.

Thanks Melissa

I still impress my family because I can(sing) say all 50 states in alphabetical order!! I sang that song all the time when I was younger. lol It'd be fun to teach it to my students. I'd love to download it.

Does anyone know where I can download Tony Chestnut (Toe-Knee Chest-Nut)?

Fifty Nifty United States
By 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,
let’s salute them now.

Just noticed you wanted the song--not lyrics. Sorry

[Super Sub]

At least it is when you can sing it for a bunch of third graders.
I remember learning this song when I was a kid. When I went to sub for music I found that they were just starting to learn it. They thought they would never get all the states down. When I went on to recite all the states IN alphabetical order you should have seen their jaws drop. Some were reading along to make sure I didn't mess up. I told them that if an Old Lady like me could learn them all AND still remember them they could too!

You are AWESOME! I have been liiking for this, too - FOREVER! Thanks for sharing it.

When I tried to play it, I had no sound. What gives?

[missy78343]

Ok so when I tried to play it on my computer I couldnt hear anything either so I decided to try to burn it to a cd. This did work but there is still something wrong with it. It is really fast and sounds like mice are singing it. So if you have a class that likes to talk fast, this might work. Anyone know of any other sites? I dont mind paying a little for the song I would just like to find it.
Thanks Melissa

Try sheetmusicplus.com. In the search box type in the name and 4 items come up. One has a CD accompaniment. Hope this is what you're looking for--I love this song too!

[ReyMim32]

I just downloaded it and it worked. The volume isn't fantastic, but with an extra speaker it should be fine.

you can find it on limewire. [legally] Under Schoolhouse Rock.
they do it and many more school songs. :]

I have been looking for this song too! Thanks a bunch. Can you buy it in stores to have your own CD of it?

limewire has it, i just downloaded it.

hey you can get it on limewire

Go to youtube and type in fifty-nifty united states and their it is! Alsow if you type in wacos 50 states, a song with a cartoon animal who points to the states and sings their names and capinals and silly coments like, "Elves hung out their a lot you know".
