The Man In the Chair

(The Lincoln Memorial) Out into Space, does He seem to stare This once noble being fixated in his chair After Our fore-fathers of their fate, he came to spare Putting on the "Old South" a little "wear and tear" When He to challenge the law, had the nerve to dare Making for Him to abruptly, end up in the Lord's care Just for Changing History, now tell Me, is that fair??
