Its that time again --the annual culminating production of our second grade's study of the United States. This year even better songs, dances, and projects. One thing that never changes is the singing of "50 Nifty United States" Lyrics can be found here: http://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/raycharles/fiftyniftyunitedstates.html
In researching this, I learned for the first time, that the song was written by the amazing Ray Charles. (Yes, THAT Ray Charles!) How many of you learned the names of all 50 states by singing this song? If you did, give a silent thanks to one of the greatest talents of his generation, Ray Charles.
