This song spoofs our president. The Constitution
gives Americans rights to disagree at times. I volunteered for the Army Paratroopers during wartime so I hope I qualify to use that liberty.

Story behind the song
We want the world to know we are steadfast patriotic Americans. But this songwriter doesn't think our President has done the greatest job at home or abroad during a very critical time.
Lyrics
THE BALLAD OF G.W.
Copyright Louis Brown
He stopped his drinking, this ambitious man
And applied his I.Q. to a more complex plan
He dodged Vietnam; he chose NOT to go
He wanted a war where oil business could grow
Al-Qaeda attacked; but George took on Saddam
He swore that Iraq would do nuclear harm
That scoundrel bin laden just kept out of sight
'Hope our real enemy's not in New York tonight
Chorus: G.W. oh-h-h-h G.W.
The facts make it hard to love ya
He gave big tax breaks to those who don't lack
And squandered our billions for WHAT in Iraq
He backed Halliburton who Cheney once bossed
To build Iraq back at just ten times the cost
While Gasoline soars; employment slumps
Our world prestige is way down in the dumps
Jobs go abroad; health costs look dim!
And Wallstreet's still down from the years under him
Chorus: G.W. oh-h-h-h-h G.W.
The facts make it hard to love ya
G.W.'s revenge hasn't been all that sweet
Cause terrorists thrive on old Baghdad's main street
If you look at the record, it pretty well stunk!
I liked him better when he was a drunk
I love my country--That ain't no bunk--
But I felt much safer when George was a drunk!
