Going to Tampa |
| Goodbye my honey, farewell my baby |
| Don’t look for me around convention time |
| I’m bound for Tampa, in the great state of Florida |
| To see some distinguished friends of mine |
| Mitt and Rick and the pitbulls, the jolly ride and step forth |
| To the highest bidder each will guarantee |
| I’d give all my money sir if Palin calls me honey |
| And shakes the peaches off my tree |
| 'Cause I’m goin' to Tampa in the morning |
| Got my credentials in my overalls |
| But I can’t take you with me little darling |
| I’m going down to get my asses hauled |
| Well here’s a proposition to entertain a motion |
| Bring back Willie Horton to us now |
| We’ll spook the congregation and petrify the nation |
| And blame the folks from Mexico somehow |
| And let me introduce a man who all know well |
| He can play a very important role |
| State rights is his game, Jim Crow is his name |
| And Jim’s our little ace in the hole |
| 'Cause I’m goin' to Tampa in the morning |
| Saints of latter days will heed the call |
| We’ll shout hallelujah in the evening |
| I’m going down to get my asses hauled |
| Well the NRA woman told the tea party man |
| Gonna make love to you with a gun in my hand |
| That tea party man said, that’s all right |
| Got a smoking bomb under my pillow at night |
| Well we’re all going to Tampa in the morning |
| Honey will you miss me when I’m gone |
| Now hope you pack my old bed sheet |
| I’m going down to get my asses hauled |
| Yes, I’m goin' to Tampa in the morning |
| Honey will you miss me when I’m gone |
| Now hope you pack my old bed sheet |
| 'Cause I’m going down to get my asses hauled |
