Lyrics:

The Guv’ner from Reside

The Guv’ner

Played with boys

In the sovereign state

Of Illinois

He greased the wheels

Cut the deals

But now the sheriff and the dogs

Are rounding up and nipping heels

I heard some mumbling

About a change

Then they say new blood

Is all too strange

The man in place

He’s in the know

Besides we’re waiting for some wires

Don’t want to interrupt the flow

At noon I’ll pick a place

Stand alone with Grace

Stare them in the face

Something must give

‘Cause this is war

We’ve had enough

If you need more

This is the place where I live

This kind of man

That’s vaunt and bought

Moves on the cash

Never the ought

He’ll key the door

Open the store

If you’ll just hand him a reason

I’m old enough

I’ve been around

Know how they run

This state and town

An honest day

Can’t bear the cost

Republicratic swine are banging shoulders at the trough

Our governor played with boys
