When I was in 4th grade in 1991, we listened to a song on a casette tape that was a long rhyming list of all different examples of nouns. I specifically remember a man introducing the song by singing "A cabbage or a king, the words we want to sing about are nouns! Oh well there's..."
I also can remember the very last verse perfectly:
"Canada, Vermont, New York, and even your home town...
Mississippi and Alaska
Tallahasse and Nebraska,
Every single one is just a noun."
Did anybody else ever listen to or teach this in grade school? I *really* don't think it was a School House Rock song, since those are usually videos, and we only ever listened to this.

So far, none of the answers are correct - this song didn't have any sort of narrative, it was just a long, rhyming list of words, and I specifically remember that last verse.
