lyrics

Uncle Sam
Music & Lyrics by David E Ball

Well I’m your Uncle Sam doin’ all I can
But feeling rather weak.
You of course can reverse this course
Of our nation on the brink.
Our Founders, way back when; knew we must defend,
Division of government -
Less potentates emasculate
Our freedoms, upon a whim.

So, I will try to clarify
To each and everyone that I see.
That freedom’s cause, enshrined in our laws,
Is being trampled by this Presidency.
(Such lunacy!)

I’ll be a happy man when our system stands,
Three branches still intact.
The casting call for the debtor’s ball,
Rebuked and soundly set back.
Then I’ll be fine and free, our democracy,
Having chosen to rebuff
A lawless cad’s foolish grab
For an uber-presidency.
Get your freedom-stealing paws off of me!
We fought you once before -
Tyranny- You sicken me.

So, I will try to clarify
To each and everyone that I see.
That freedom’s cause, enshrined in our laws,
Is being trampled by this Presidency.
(Idiocy!)

Yes, I’m your Uncle Sam and on freedom stand
With Statesmen who represent
Their people and our Forefather’s plan
In our founding documents -
The Declaration of Independence
The Constitution and (of course)
The people’s consent!
