So You'Re Running To Be President

So You're Running to be President By Franklin Price 6/29/2015 So you're running to be President I'm here to cast my vote I'm just one single person Not anyone of note I'm the one you should consider I'm every woman every man Who's old enough to help you Or to throw you in the can You're not so high and mighty Put your pants on just like me Want be in charge of freedom And freedom isn't free Many died to keep us here The choice of freedoms are our own As long as we obey the laws We should all be left alone Don't tell me how to live my life That is not for you to say Yours is to protect and represent me You'll swear to do that every day As President you won't be king Was never meant to be You're put there to administrate A better life for you and me If that's not on your agenda You will not get my vote You will not be the President Not wear the top hat and the coat
