Tell me why you liked Roosevelt
Poor man's friend
That's why I like Roosevelt
Poor man's friend
That's why I like Roosevelt
Poor man's friend
Good God Almighty, he's the poor man's friend
For in the year of 1932
We had no idea just what we would do
All our finances had flowed away
Till my dad got a job with the WPA
And that's why I like Roosevelt
Poor man's friend
That's why I like Roosevelt
Poor man's friend
That's why I like Roosevelt
Poor man's friend
Good God Almighty, that's the poor man's friend
Good God Almighty, that's the poor man's friend
Tell me why you like Lester B

Tell me why you like Lester B
Poor man's friend
Tell me why you like Lester B
Poor man's friend
Good God Almighty, that's the poor man's friend
Good God Almighty, that's the poor man's friend
Come in the year of 1967
As a somewhat younger man
The call to bloody glory came
And I would not raise my hand
'Cause I'm baptized by water
So I'll pass on the one by fire
If you want to fight, go on and fight
If that be your desire
But that's why I like Pierre Trudeau
Poor man's friend
That's why I like Pierre Trudeau
Poor man's friend
That's why I like Pierre Trudeau
Poor man's friend
Good God Almighty, that's the poor man's friend
Good God Almighty, that's the poor man's friend
But that's why I like Pierre Trudeau

Good God Almighty, that's the poor man's friend

Good God in heaven, that is the poor man's friend
