Lyrics Holiday For States (A Love Song For the Whole United States) (parody of Holiday For Strings) - Allan Sherman

There are songs about Montana
And New York and Indiana
But the song the nation patiently awaits
Is the song I now will bring you
As I clear my throat and sing you
A love song to the whole United States
(I love you)
