The Lyrics

From the CD, "Hail to the Thief! Songs for the Bush Years," a 15-song compilation produced by union folksingers. This CD is available online and from our website.
I'm George W.

(Tune: "Oh Susanna" )

Let me introduce myself, George W. is my name
And I'm a rich dumb frat boy, goofing off has been my game
My daddy's name and money help me everywhere I go
And I want to be your leader, though my brain's a little slow

I'm George W., don't you cry for me
I've come all the way from Texas just as dumb as I can be
I'm George W., don't you cry for me
Now I've made it to the White House- that's in Washington, DC
(Second voice: "Hey, he got it right that time!")

Don't ask me 'bout my past, you know I've sure seen better days
Though I spent most of the 80's in a drunken, coked-up haze
But I bought my way through Harvard and I bought my way to Yale
And Poppy's name and money kept my drunk ass out of jail

I'm George W., don't you cry for me
I've come all the way from Texas just as dumb as I can be
Oh I'm George W., don't you cry for me
Now I've made it to the White House- that's in Washington, CD
(Second voice: "That's DC, dummy!")

So let me introduce myself, George W. is my name
And things in good old Washington will never be the same
Now Dick and Colin tell me what to say and what to do
They even help me figure out which people I should screw

I'm George W., don't you cry for me
I've come all the way from Texas just as dumb as I can be
Oh I'm George W., don't you cry for me
Now I've made it to the White House- that's in Washington, DC
