[intro]
Woohoo/Woohoo
[verse 1]
Lincoln just hit the wall/even though he had it all
He got shot today/by John Wilkes Booth, okay
His chances're slim to none/so it looks like he's done
He was the President/it's a shame how he went
Now he can remember his past/when he went to a fishing place
And then when he shook his BASS/in front of his wife's face
He just got shot you see/by who's the enemy
Looks at his special life/I guess it has been alright
[refrain]
Farmers, slaveholders/The war just got over
There was bourbon and brandy/still no electricity
No such thing as high school/so I guess it was still cool
But Lincoln's barely alive/in 18, 18, 1865
Woohoo/(1865)/Woohoo
[verse 2]
Lincoln's gonna be a legend/everyone will know his name
And even when his name's just mentioned/they'll recognize his fame
But he had lots to change/the war left the U.S. strange
In a time of need/they needed him to lead
Where's the President who showed much grace?
And who's the next guy who will take his place?
He could've helped improve/technology
And they've never heard of/Ipods, cars and
(what's a radio?)
[refrain]
[verse 3]
Lincoln wants/time to stop
He is freaking out ‘cause he/is almost gone
He doesn't want to be/come history
Just make it stop, stop, STOP
And respect
[refrain 2x]
