Текст песни If A Song Could Be President

If a song could be president

We'd hum on Election Day

The gospel choir would start to sway

And we'd all have a part to play

The First Lady would free her hips

Pull a microphone to her lips

Break our hearts with rhythm and blues

Steve Earle would anchor the news

We'd vote for a melody

Pass it around on an MP3

All our best foreign policy

Would be built on harmony

If a song could be president

We'd fly a jukebox to the moon

All our founding fathers 45's

Lightnin' Hopkins and Patsy Cline

If a song could be president

We could all add another verse

Life would teach us to rehearse

Till we found a key change

Break out of this minor key

Half truths and hypocrisy

We wouldn't need an underachiever-in-chief

If a song could be president

We'd make Neil Young a Senator

Even though he came from Canada

Emmy Lou would be Ambassador

World leaders would listen to her

They would show us where our country went wrong

Strum their guitars on the White House lawn

John Prine would run the FBI

All the criminals would laugh and cry

If a song could be president
