Tell Me Why You Like Roosevelt |
| 'Cause in the year of nineteen and thirty-two |
| We had no idea just what we would do |
| All our finances had flowed away |
| Till my dad got a job with the WPA |
| And that’s why I like Roosevelt (poor man’s friend) |
| That’s why I like Roosevelt (poor man’s friend) |
| That’s why I like Roosevelt (poor man’s friend) |
| Good God almighty that’s the poor man’s friend |
| Good God almighty that’s the poor man’s friend |
| Tell me why you like Lester B (poor man’s friend) |
| Tell me why you like Lester B (poor man’s friend) |
| Tell me why you like Lester B (poor man’s friend) |
| Good God almighty that’s the poor man’s friend |
| Good God almighty that’s the poor man’s friend |
| 'Cause in the year of nineteen and sixty-seven |
| I was a somewhat younger man |
| The call came to bloody glory came |
| And I would not raise my hand |
| 'Cause I’m baptized by water |
| So I’ll pass on the one by fire |
| If you want to fight |
| Go on and fight if that be your desire |
| That’s why I like Pierre Trudeau (poor man’s friend) |
| That’s why I like Pierre Trudeau (poor man’s friend) |
| That’s why I like Pierre Trudeau (poor man’s friend) |
| Good God almighty that’s the poor man’s friend |
| Good God almighty that’s the poor man’s friend |
| That’s why I like Pierre Trudeau (poor man’s friend) |
| That’s why I like Pierre Trudeau (poor man’s friend) |
| That’s why I like Pierre Trudeau (poor man’s friend) |
| Good God almighty that’s the poor man’s friend |
| Good God almighty that’s the poor man’s friend |
| Good God almighty that’s the poor man’s friend |
