48 States Lyrics
Been to 48 states and a few different worlds Beheld the blind tour guide and a pig wearing pearls I've seen grace under foot people fall in the street Or use it to wipe their feet
Never the righteous man forsaken Never the righteous man
Been to 48 states I remember a few Having higher skylines and a wide angle view I've seen green lands and the natives stay in one place Peace falling on their face
Where could I be And stay happy I hear Hawaii is greener I hear Alaska is cleaner Whether here or there the righteous have joy to spare
Been to 48 states and few different worlds I've seen dithered men leave boys, women and girls Found the church roll full and they're current with dues To pay for the empty pews
Never the righteous man forsaken Never the righteous man.
