It's Time To Work Together
By Franklin Price
11/11/2016

It's time to work together
We've hooked the horse up to the plow
The voting's done and gone
We must make a solemn vow

We the people chose the person
Must vow to overcome our fear
Let him pull the plow share now
Grow good crops on from here

Watch the rows develop
They must be straight and true
Help move the stones that turn up
Won't grow crops for me and you

Don't be that stone that's in the way
Be the plow that tills the ground
That grows the crops to feed us
Or we'll no longer be around

Congress is the farmer
The people are the plow
The President the draft horse
That pulls us on from now

We all must work together
Every row from pass to pass
Don't be the stone that's in the way
Or another horse's ass
