Rhode Island State Song• I’ve been to every state we have,

and I think I’m inclined to say

that Rhody stole my heart: Name: rhody its for meYou can keep the forty-nine.

• Herring gulls that dot the sky,blue waves that paint the rocks,water rich with Neptune’s life,the boats that line the docks.I see the lighthouse flickeringto help the sailors see.There’s a place for everyone:Rhode Island’s It for Me.

• Rhode Island, oh Rhode Islandsurrounded by the sea.Some people roam the earth for home;Rhode Island’s It for Me.

• I love the fresh October days,the buzz on College Hill,art that moves an eye to tear,a jewelers special skill.Icicles refract the sun,snow falling gracefully.Some search for a place that’s warm:Rhode Island’s It for Me!

• Rhode Island, oh Rhode Islandsurrounded by the sea.Some people roam the earth for home;Rhode Island’s It for Me.

• The skyline piercing Providence,the State House dome so rare.residents who speak their minds;no longer unaware!Roger Williams would be proud to see his colony,so don’t sell short this precious port:Rhode Island’s It for Me!

• Rhode Island, oh Rhode Islandsurrounded by the sea.Some people roam the earth for home;Rhode Island’s It for Me.

• Rhode Island, oh Rhode Islandsurrounded by the sea.Some people roam the earth for home;

A unique blend of historic New England town and hip, sophisticated city, Providence, Rhode Island offers visitors a broad spectrum of dining, shopping, cultural and entertainment options – all within walking distance of each other. Recognized as one of the country’s hottest

culinary destinations, Providence is home to Johnson & Wales University, the world’s largest culinary educator.

ProvidenceState Capital

Warwick is one of Rhode Island's major manufacturing zones, home to textile factories, metal fabrication

centers, and electronic plants. However, Rhode Island's retail trade industry has increasingly centered in

Warwick and the city has become more of a bedroom community for Providence workers. As the city moves

into the twenty-first century, finance and high-tech industries are gaining a foothold and appear, along

with tourism, to be the wave of the future in Warwick.
