Lyrics for Democrat Man
Democrat put us on our feet These crazy women, they vote them out Democrat put us on our feet These crazy women, they voted them out But I don't think they'll make the same mistake They won't make that same mistake no more They told them, "I'll send your sons home" They did just that, they send them, home to stay without a job, out of class They won't make that same mistake no more Democrat put us on our feet These crazy women, they vote them out I ain't going down, I ain't going down, no I ain't I ain't going down to the welfare store It won't be long, before the democrats be back in again I know the girls, I know the girls, I know the girls You girls ain't gonna make that same mistake again no more, I know you ain't The men vote them in and the women, the women vote them out I ain't got no shoes, no shoes No shoes going on my feet But I ain't goin' to that welfare store You know why? It won't be long 'fore election time Democrats be in I know I get shoes, I get clothes When the democrats get back in again Vote them in, you vote them in I'm a democrat man, I'm a democrat man Please, please, don't be no fool no more I ain't goin' down to that welfare store It won't be long, oh yeah I'm a democrat, I'm a democrat man And I'll be until the day I die
