The Lyrics

I was leadin' the pack last week on that old Ottumwa road,
Then that guy asked be about neighbors and I did explode.
I'm not showin' in old Ottumwa, seems that the polls all lied,
Now, I'm gonna hafta go and settle for a third place ride,
They told me I should hit the road and that I should pound sand,
I'm plannin' not on stoppin' until I reach that DC land.

We'll campaign everywhere, man.
We'll campaign everywhere, man.
Voters make me swear, man,
My rep's in disrepair, man,
Need psychiatric care, man.
We'll campaign everywhere.

We'll go to:
Utah
Idaho
Ohio
Minnesota
South Dakota
Colorado
Alaska
Nebraska
Oklahoma
Arizona
Indiana
California
Alabama
Louisana
Florida
Montana
Michigan
Oregon
Pennsylvania
North Dakota
Mississippi
Maine
Missouri

What a thriller
We'll campaign everywhere, man.
We'll campaign everywhere, man.
Voters make me swear, man,
My rep's in disrepair, man,
Need psychiatric care, man.
We'll campaign everywhere.

We'll go to:
Utah
Idaho
Ohio
Minnesota
South Dakota
Colorado
Alaska
Nebraska
Oklahoma
Arizona
Indiana
California
Alabama
Louisana
Florida

DKTOS but I'll find it. Right now it looks like a democratic cross-country to me.

2nz - Maybe JD knows where a sample is. There is a TV commercial that plays the chorus to this song but I can't recall what the product is that is being advertised. JD - Do you have a link for a sound byte sample for this one?

As Guy alluded - this one's made to be song by Howie & The Dean-tones.

That audio sample I found is part of a performance by Willie Nelson, not Johnny Cash, but it still provides a good taste of TOS.

Great job, Guy!

I'm not sure if you check your comments anymore, Guy, but congrats on submitting what is (I believe) the site's first parody of this song. It's now become a bit of a staple. This was the right OS to parody the speech of Howard Dean's that effectively killed his campaign. I can't believe that was three years ago.
