Y:
Heigh ho!
Do you know,
The names of the US 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
D:President number two would be
John Adams and then Number three
Y: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
W:James Madison never had a son
then he fought the War of 1812
D:James Monroe`s colossal nose
Was bigger than Pinnochio`s
Y:John Quincy Adams was number six
And it`s Andrew Jackson`s butt he kicked
So Jackson learns to play politics
Next time he`s the one that the country picks
D:Martin Van Buren number eight
For a one term shot as chief of state
Y:William Harrisson, how do you praise
That guy was dead in thirty days!
W:John Tyler he liked country folk
D:And after him came President Polk
Y:Zachary Taylor liked to smoke
His breath killed friends whenever he spoke
W:1850, really nifty
Millard Fillmore`s in
Y:Young and fierce was Franklin Pierce
The man without a chin
D: Follows next a period spannin`
Four long years with James Buchanan
Then the South start shootin` cannon
And we`ve got a civil war
YW&D:A war!
A war down south in Dixie!
Y:Up to bat comes old Abe Lincoln
D:There`s a guy who`s really thinkin`
W:Kept the United States from shrinking
Saved the ship of state from sinking
D:Andrew Johnson`s next
He had some slight defects
W: Congress each
Would impeach
D:And so the country now elects
Y: Ulysses Simpson Grant
Who would scream and rave and rant
W: While drinking whiskey
Although risky
Cause he`d spill it on his pants
Y: It`s 1877 and the democrats would gloat
But they`re all amazed when Rutherford Hayes
Wins by just one vote
D:James Garfield, someone really hated
Cause he was assasinated
W:Chester Arthur gets instated
Four years later he was traded
D:For Grover Cleveland, really fat
Elected twice as a democrat
Then Benjamin Harrisson after that
It`s William McKinley up at bat
Y:Teddy Roosevelt charged up San Juan Hill
W:And President Taft he got the bill
Y:In 1913 Woodrow
YW&D: Wiiilllllllson
Takes us into World War One
Y:Warren Harding next in line
D:It`s Calvin Coolidge he does fine
W: And then in 1929
The market crashes and we find
Y:It`s Herbert Hoover`s big debut
He gets the blame and loses to
D:Franklin Roosevelt, President who
Helped us win in World War Two
W:Harry Truman, weird little human
Serves two terms and when he`s done
Y:It`s Eisenhower who`s got the power
From `53 to `61
D:John Kennedy, had Camalot
Then Lyndon Johnson took his spot
Y:Richard Nixon he gets caught
And Gerald Ford fell down a lot
W:Jimmy Carter liked campaign trips
Y:And Ronald Regan`s speeches scripts
All came from famous movie clips
And President Bush said `read my lips`
D:Now in Washington D.C.
W:It`s democrats and the G.O.P.
Y:But the ones in charge are plain to see
D:The Clintons Bill & Hillary
Y: The next President to lead the way
Well, it just might be yourself one day
Then the press`ll distort everything you say
YW&D:So jump in your plane and fly away Send " The Presidents" Ringtone to your Cell
