The Presidents
Lyricist:Randy Rogel, Gioacchino Anton Rossini
Heigh ho, do you know The names of the U.S. residents Who then became the presidents And got a view from the White House loo Of Pennsylvania Avenue?
George Washington was the first, you see He once chopped down a cherry tree President number two would be John Adams and then number three
George Washington was the first, you see He once chopped down a cherry tree President number two would be John Adams and then number three
Tom Jefferson stayed up to write The Declaration late at night So he and his wife had a great big fight And she made him sleep on the couch all night
Tom Jefferson stayed up to write The Constitution late at night So he and his wife had a great big fight And she made him sleep on the couch all night
James Madison never had a son And he fought the War of 1812 James Monroe's colossal nose Was bigger than Pinocchio's
John Quincy Adams was number six And it's Andrew Jackson's butt he kicks So Jackson learns to play politics Next time he's the one that the country picks
Martin Van Burne, number eight For a one-term shot as Chief of State William Harrison, how do you praise? That guy was dead in thirty days
John Tyler, he liked country folk And after him came President Polk Zachary Taylor liked to smoke His breath killed friends whenever he spoke
Eighteen fifty, really nifty Millard Fillmore's in Young and fierce was Franklin Pierce The man without a chin
Follows next a period spannin' Four long years with James Buchanan Then the South starts shootin' cannon And we've got a civil war A war, a war down south in Dixie
Up to bat comes old Abe Lincoln There's a guy who's really thinkin' Kept the United States from shrinkin' Saved the ship of state from sinkin'
Andrew Johnson's next He had some slight defects Congress each would impeach And so the country now elects
Ulysses Simpson Grant Who would scream and rave and rant While drinking whiskey although risky 'Cause he'd spill it on his pants Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
It's eighteen seventy-seven And the Democrats would gloat But they're all amazed when Rutherford Hayes Wins by just one vote
James Garfield, someone really hated 'Cause he was assassinated Chester Arthur gets instated Four years later, he was traded
For Grover Cleveland, really fat Elected twice as a Democrat Then Benjamin Harrison, after that It's William McKinley up to bat
Teddy Roosevelt charged up San Juan Hill And President Taft, he got the bill In 1913 Woodrow Wilson takes us into World War One
Warren Harding next in line It's Calvin Coolidge; he does fine And then in nineteen twenty-nine The market crashes and we find
Warren Harding, he does fine It's Calvin Coolidge next in line And then in nineteen twenty-nine The market crashes and we find
It's Herbert Hoover's big debut He gets the blame and loses to Franklin Roosevelt, president who Helped us win in World War Two
Harry Truman, weird little human Serves two terms and when he's done It's Eisenhower who's got the power From fifty-three to sixty-one
John Kennedy had Camelot Then Lyndon Johnson took his spot Richard Nixon, he gets caught And Gerald Ford fell down a lot
John F. Kennedy, he gets shot So Lyndon Johnson takes his spot Richard Nixon, he gets caught And Gerald Ford fell down a lot
Jimmy Carter liked campaign trips And Ronald Reagan's speeches' scripts All came from famous movie clips And President Bush said, 'read my lips'
Now in Washington D.C. There's Democrats and the G.O.P. But the ones in charge are plain to see The Clinton's, Bill and Hillary
Now in Washington D.C. There's Democrats and the G.O.P. But the one in charge is plain to see It's Clinton, first name Hillary
The next president to lead the way Well, it just might be yourself one day Then the press will distort everything you say So jump in your plane and fly away
