Lyrics

Well, you been talkin’, talkin’ to the people Tryin’ to get them to go your way Telling us, telling us not to worry You say we won’t be led astray We’re so tired of your signifying How do we know, 'til it’s too late Whether or not you’ve been lying? Think about the mistakes you make I believe, sir, that humanity’s at stake You see, busin’, busin’ is just one issue, one issue What about the rest of it, mister? Well, if you've got the plan I said, you, if you’ve got the master plan I got to vote for you, ah yeah I got to vote for you ‘Cause you’re the man, I know, ah yeah Maybe what this country needs is a lady for president No, we don’t wanna hear no more lies About how you plan to economize We want our dollar value increased And employment to rise This heavy taxation has got us all in this awful situation Now, don’t, don't give us no peace sign Turn around and rob the people blind Oh, economics, money is all you’re interested in Do you have a plan that all the people can share in? ‘Cause if you’ve got the plan I got to vote for you Cause you’re the man, I know, oh People marching on Washington Why not hear what they have to say? Because the tables might turn against you Set around Election Day Demagogues and admitted minority haters Should never be President, this time a lady Will you, will you stop the bombs And right all the wrongs this administration has done? I know peace and freedom is the issue, oh Lord Do you have a plan with you, mister? ‘Cause if you’ve got the plan I said, you, you’ve got the master plan Well I got to vote for you Oh Lord, I got to vote for you ‘Cause you’re the man Woo, got to vote for you If you’re gonna take a stand I got to vote for you Gonna be the man? What about the issues? What about the young folks? What about marijuana? What about peace, peace in the land? Do you understand? Gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta take a stand Then I’ll vote for you, I think you’re the man Tell me something, don’t run away Tell me something, gonna see your face I gotta vote for you, I think that you’re the man Gotta be strong whether you’re right or wrong
