I was losin' Gubernational polls no matter what we spent
G C
Oh the millions Pappy laid out, they didn't make a dent
C F
He said there's just one thing to do, George, dry out and repent!
G G7
So I got me born-again, my polls went up fifteen per cent
Then my Pappy came and told me that I could be the president
Well I sat him right down and asked him, what that meant
He said you get to be the honcho, ruler of the land.
(Then he got me Mr. Cheney, but I still don't understand)
Got move up to Washington
Got me a funny looking round office
I ride around in big long limousines
Everybody calls me "Sir"
And all the Pork Rinds and pretzels I can eat
Satisville,
Texas style
"The D.C. Hillbillies"

Yes, Mr. Cheney, we'll do it your way
G C C7
Mr. Cheney knows how to win election day
F C
Get Jeb to fix Florida, but that's only half the fun
G G7
Pappy's gonna git the court to say that we have won
When they complain that we're from Texas and the say we're lilly white
We'll just get that feller Collin Powell and it'll be alright.
Brown sugar lady Rice, oughta cover two more bases
Then we can get get the good ol' boys for all the other places
Yes, Mr. Cheney, we'll do it your way
Mr. Cheney says he knows how to win election day
Get Jeb to fix Florida, but that's only half the fun
Pappy's gonna git the court to say that we have won
Mr. Cheney says we've got lots of work to do
We need homeland security before we're through
Four years to securitize before election day
Mr. Cheney says we won't let voters get in the way
Yes, Mr. Cheney, we got some work to do
But I don't understand it all so I'm a-counting on you.
Yes, Mr. Cheney, we've got work to do
Gotta fix this constitution thing before four years are through
Mr. Ashcroft said that dissent is just treason
I said "Hold on John, can't you just give me a reason"
He said "I'm sorry, Sir, your question fits the test
Now come along with me, George, cause you're under arrest"
Yes, Mr. Cheney, we got some work to do
But I don't understand it all so I'm a-counting on you.
Yes, Mr. Cheney, we've got work to do
Gotta fix this constitution thing before four years are through
