Drink in Rom’ and Iacocca
—apologies to the Andrews Sisters, and “Rum and Coca Cola”
Iacocca in Michigan
Never vote for Republican
But now he look at economy
And he endorse Mitt Romney
Drink in Rom’ and Iacocca
Tryin’ to defeat Obama
To stop the economic slaughter
And to save the Yankee dollar…
Oh, beat him, man, beat him
Obama pander to the mob
Talk about “shovel-ready jobs”
But borrow trillions from Chinese
To line the pockets of his cronies
Drink in Rom’ and Iacocca
Tryin’ to defeat Obama
To stop the economic slaughter
And to save the Yankee dollar…
Oh, he vex me, he vex me
Iacocca he ran Chrysler cars
When their fortunes fell down far
But though he took big bailout
He not like Obama Chevy Volt
Drink in Rom’ and Iacocca
Tryin’ to defeat Obama
To stop the economic slaughter
And to save the Yankee dollar…
It’s a fact, man, it’s a fact
Romney not fly by seat of pants
Have business experience
Knows the way to economic health
Is not to redistribute wealth
Drink in Rom’ and Iacocca
Tryin’ to defeat Obama
To stop the economic slaughter
And to save the Yankee dollar…
For safety driving near or far
Air bags now standard in your car
When Obama go down in defeat
Air bag be gone from driver’s seat
Drink in Rom’ and Iacocca
Tryin’ to defeat Obama
To stop the economic slaughter
And to save the Yankee dollar…
It’s a fact, man, it’s a fact
Rom’ and Iacocca
Rom’ and Iacocca
Tryin’ to save the Yankee dollar…
You left out the chorus line:
“Both mother and daughter, working for Obama’s dollar”
(Oh wait, never mind, that was Columbia. I thought it was Obama-Phone.)
“Mother and daughter/Workin’ for the Obama dollar” would be appropriate if I were doing the song about Obama’s “War on Women” campaign. For this one, more appropriate to rewrite the line.
“Obamaphone” does sound like one of the small 78 rpm labels, though…
“Mother and daughter…”
… “For this one, more appropriate to rewrite the line.”
It’ll be a Fluke if you get it right.
(grammar exceeding carefully chosen (-: )
I don’t know where he gets it. Should be set to music.
Masterful!!! Bravo!!!! Yeah…outta sight. Genius.
Yes, “Both mot-her an’ daw-ter, layin’ fur da yankee dolla’!!!!” Right on!!! Just like “mot-her an’ daw-ter” do in “Cuber!” Hey, why tha’s jist a stones throw from ‘ol Jamaica town (Harry Bellafonte)!
Outstanding, Buzz!!! I am again amazed, and thank you!
