I learned this song in school too, probably in the very early ’80s. Until today I’ve never found anyone else who did. I can still sing it up to the M’s, which is where my memory falters. I love singing out the states where the song pauses, like Connecticut and Iowa.

Truly cute. We learned the states the same way (and the same song) in elementary school but I didn’t have it down nearly as young as this little girl.

I believe we have Ray Charles to thank for the song. We also learned this in school as well over 20 years ago.
