The Lyrics
First, if you are rating this, I followed the original's "pacing" and "timing" to the letter. Your "beef" is with Johnny Horton rather than me. Second, I DID feel that "North To Alaska" might have been a more appropriate tune. It's also much more obscure and difficult to use. Finally, any personal opinions by the parodist are not necessarily reflected in this song.
Verse:
In autumn of two-thousand-eight things just weren't going fine
Obama had a great big lead - McCain was way behind
Obama thought he had the race tucked tightly in his palm
Then McCain unveiled his runnung mate and dropped an atom bomb
Out of the frozen rocky north came the answer to his prayers
A force more strong and fearsome than forty polar bears
When Sarah Palin paired with John they made an awesome team
And the liberals and Democrats - they all began to scream
Chorus:
We've got to trash that lousy tramp who's making such a fuss!
So what if she's a woman - she isn't one of us!
We'll use our dirty tricks and lies and made-up stuff we found
We'll dump on Sarah Palin! We're gonna take her down!
Verse:
The press first dismissed her as some pathetic clown
The politicians dissed her as mayor of a small town
But when they saw her record it just drove them mad
For she had more experience than old Obama had.
Joe Biden looked and found himself right on the hottest seat
He knew he was bested and he could not compete.
He gaffed and stammered and said 'Don't put the blame on me!
You had the chance to give it to our champion Hillary!'
Chorus:
We've got to trash that lousy tramp who's causing such a fuss!
So what if she's a woman - she isn't one of us!
We'll use our dirty tricks and lies and made-up stuff we found
We'll dump on Sarah Palin! We're gonna take her down!
Verse:
The feminists and news folk yelled out with mouths a-foam
'You're married and have children! You place is in the home!
You have a knocked-up daughter and that's a big disgrace!
We spit on your religion and we're gonna break your face!'
Charles Gibson tried and couldn't give Sarah the big screw
And neither could the networks and ladies on The View
Obama made his choice remark 'bout lipstick and a pig
But their slams and smears were all in vain - she didn't give a fig
Chorus:
We tried to trash that lousy tramp who's making such a fuss!
So what if she's a woman - she wasn't one of us!
We used our dirty tricks and lies and made-up stuff we found
We dumped on Sarah Palin, but we just can't take her down!
