Add: Election song: He Voted For Nader(LindaAllen)

Subject: Election songs?
From: Linda Allen

Here we go. I think we could use a little humor. Here's a song I hope will become obsolete in a very short time! Pardon the lack of line breaks -- I know there's a way to do it but I lost it again! Sorry - Linda

Words: Linda Allen Tune: Satisfied Mind by Red Hays & Jack Rhodes

He Voted for Nader

He voted for Nader She voted for Gore She said, "It's all your fault What we're headin' for Take the kids to the cellar Douse the lights, bolt the door Why didn't you listen And just vote for Gore

I know you're a dreamer But look what you've done Big business run riot Every man with a gun Pollution so heavy We'll scarce draw a breath No pure water flowing And no forests left

Now Nader's a good guy We all did agree He'd fight for the planet Halt the forces of greed But there was no point in voting For a guy can't win But you voted your conscience And Bush shuffled in

Now our friends and our neighbors Know that you were the one They're coming to get you For the bad thing you done And I used to love you But I don't any more You voted for Nader I voted for Gore

Linda, here it is with line breaks:

Words: Linda Allen Tune: Satisfied Mind by Red Hays & Jack Rhodes

He Voted for Nader

He voted for Nader
She voted for Gore
She said, "It's all your fault
What we're headin' for
Take the kids to the cellar
Douse the lights, bolt the door
Why didn't you listen
And just vote for Gore

I know you're a dreamer
But look what you've done
Big business run riot
Every man with a gun
Pollution so heavy
We'll scarce draw a breath
No pure water flowing
And no forests left

Now Nader's a good guy
We all did agree
He'd fight for the planet
Halt the forces of greed
But there was no point in voting
For a guy can't win
But you voted your conscience
And Bush shuffled in

Now our friends and our neighbors
Know that you were the one
They're coming to get you
For the bad thing you done
And I used to love you
But I don't any more
You voted for Nader
I voted for Gore

cheers,

david
