A song written for the fourth grade opera
(Refrain)
North Star State
Gopher State
And the Land of 10,000 lakes:
Create a More Connected Minnesota

Minnesota is our home.
(Verse 1)
'Hail Minnesota' is our state song.
Milk is our state beverage.
Walleye is our state fish
And our state muffin is blueberry.
(Refrain, sung in a round)
North Star State
Gopher State
And the Land of 10,000 lakes:
Minnesota is our home.
(Verse 2)
The common loon is our state bird.
Norway Pine is our state tree
Monarch is our state insect,
But some think mosquitoes should be.
(Back to refrain)
