Arlo Guthrie
Presidential Rag
You said you didn't knowThat the cats with the birds were thereAnd you never go along with that kind of stuff no whereBut that just isn't the point manThat's the wrong wrong way to goIf you didn't know about that one, well then what else don't you knowYou said that you were lied toWell that ain't hard too seeBut you must have been fooled again by your friends across the seaAnd maybe you were fooled again by your people here at homeBecause nobody could talk like youAnd know what's going onNobody elected your familyAnd we didn't elect your friendsNo one voted for your advisers And nobody wants the menYou're the one we voted for, so you must take the blameFor handing out authority to men who were insaneYou say its all fixed up now, you've got new guys on the lineBut you had better remember this while you still got the timeMothers still are weeping for their boys that went to warFather still are asking what the whole damn thing was for And People still are hungry and people still are poorAnd on this week of work these days don't feed the kids no moreSchools are still like prison'Cause we don't learn how to liveLetras de cancionesAnd everybody wants to take, nobody wants to giveYes you will be remembered, be remembered very wellAnd if I live a long life, all the stories I could tellA mans who falls in poverty of sickness and of griefHell yesYou will be remembered, be remembered very wellYou said you didn't knowThat the that the cats with the birds were thereYou'd never go along with that kind of stuff no whereBut that just isn't the point manThat's the wrong ,wrong way to goYou did
