Hmmmm. I think these lyrics deserve to be posted.


SOON MAY THE KERRYMAN COME
A song about Regime Change, based on a traditional New Zealand folk song.
Copyright © James Goche' 2004

F C
(Chorus) Soon may the Kerryman come
Dm Am
And set Wee Georgie out, on the run
F C
One day when the voting is done,
E E7 Am
He'll take his leave and go
Am
A ship of state, it put to sea
F C E7
And the name of the ship was the Wee Georgie
Am
The chads hung up, the boat sailed free
E E7 Am
Oh, blow my bully boys, blow

He had not been three weeks from shore
When down on him the Right Wing bore
To cut corporate tax and start a war
And take the world in tow

Dick Cheney said Saddam must leave
Al Quaida links and WMD
For he subscribed to the Halliburton creed
That freely oil must flow

John Ashcroft said the Bill of Rights
Is dangerous, when right it might
Our personal affairs need oversight
Our freedoms they must go

So for four long years, it seems like more
Republicans, they ran the store
Wee Georgie says he wants four more
----May the voters tell him …… "NO"

First introduced at the Fish Brew Pub in Olympia, Washington on June 16, 2004 with the house energetically joining in on the chorus.

Are there any Mudcatters guilty of participating in the production of this recording?
I like it.
