Lyrics
I know your face, I know your name
Much beyond that, I can?t say a thing
You?re takin? up my t.v. most every day
Make the whole damn world listen to the trash you say
You ain?t livin? on this Earth by yourself
Everything you do does somethin? to everybody else
You put your nose up at the folks that you can?t see
But you better think twice before you do the things you thinkin? ?bout doin?
We got a cowboy in the White House
Tie ?em up, lock ?em up
Cowboy in the White House
He?s gonna shoot ?em up
Burn us all up
We got a cowboy in the White House
A power buff, can?t get enough
Cowboy in the White House
Woe is me
I know your moves, I know your plan
Anybody?s fool could tell ya it?s just a sham
You sell us down the river on ships and planes
Make our children blow these folks to smithereens
They?ll get your message brother loud and clear
And we?ll get theirs when they come here
You put your nose up at the world that you don?t see
You better think twice before you do the things you thinkin? ?bout doin?
We got a cowboy in the White House
Tie ?em up, lock ?em up
cowboy in the White House
He?s gonna shoot ?em up
Burn us all up
We got a cowboy in the White House
A power buff, can?t get enough
cowboy in the White House
Woe is me
Cowboy in the White House
Lyrics Page 2
If you wanna make this world a safe and better place
If that?s the truth man, just get out the way
It ain?t nothin? personal, but personal it is
What you talkin? ?bout givin? us may not be what we wanna get
Wanna rule this world with ships and planes
Same way y?all ruled us with whips and chains
We got a cowboy in the White House
Tie ?em up, lock ?em up
cowboy in the White House
He?s gonna shoot ?em up
Burn us all up
We got a cowboy in the White House
A power buff, can?t get enough
cowboy in the White House
Woe is me
Spoken:
It?s gonna be all of us directly
Gonna be ALL of us directly
Well?
