A tribute to a great State Proud to be from Wisconsin! The United States is the land of my birth The strongest and wealthiest country on earth. But the states arent all equal, Im sorry to say... Wisconsins the pick of the 50 today. I like Virginia, Montana and Maine. But its here in Wisconsin I proudly remain. With walleyes and fish fries and hot apple pie And the Badgerland motto: Eat Cheese or Die Weve got forests and prairies Breweries and dairies Skiing on water and skiing on snow From Big Bend to Bayfield Potosi to Plainfield The lucky ones live in Wisconsin. Arizonas too dry, Colorados too high In Alaska youll freeze and in Georgia youll fry. Hawaiis so distant its barely existent, California is crumbling; lets all wave good-bye. Nevadas too empty, the deserts dont tempt me In Kansas a forest is just one lonesome tree. New York is an anthill, a flesh-and-blood landfill, And too many lawyers run loose in DC. Weve got silos and steeples And down-to-earth people. Holsteins aplenty and Guernseys galore. From Lone Rock to Lena, New Glarus to Neenah, The lucky ones live in Wisconsin Minnesota and Michigan, theyre both our special friends. We get along fine with the people next door. Illinois on the other hand, I couldnt recommend. Its flat as a pancake and spoiled to the core. The Flatlanders visit us year after year. Clogging the highways and killing our deer. They root for the White Sox, they frighten our livestock. We hide all the children whenever theyre here. Weve got sweet corn and bratwurst Chicagos a lot worse Our cheddar is better, our butters the best. From Monroe to Milwaukee, Waupun to Wausaukee, The lucky ones live in Wisconsin. In Wisconsin theres no slackers, Oh, and weve got the Packers. Yes, from Kewaskum to Algoma, Two Rivers to Tomah, The lucky ones live in Wisconsin
