Oooo... Tennessee
Is he right?
So well-bred
Preferred to Gore
A common thread
Is he the sort
Who isn't bought
And pulls us from Iraq?
[2x]
Oooo... Tennessee
Is he right
So well-read?
Is he level in the head?
Is he the sort
That you've thought has led
And set us far ahead?
[2x]
Oooo... Tennessee
Oooo... Oh Tennessee
Does he talk
About issues?
Is his voice reminding you
Of his characters
And Watergate guys too
Sometimes...
Really, of the things he'll do,
His one mistake
Accidentally set our loans aflame

captured my interest
I like Fred Thompson...but, overall, I guess Im more of a liberal...but, good job, here
Have to be honest. . .not sure if this is a tribute, or a question for Fred Thompson:) Either way it paced well and was very creative.
Thanks, Alvin, AFW, & Below Average Dave. BTW, BAD, I'm not a fan of Fred, actually. I just made this as a question to those who do like him. He's certainly better than Bush and Guiliani, but his lobbyist past concerns me.
The best thing to come out of Tennessee is Jack Daniels. They should stick to that. 555
Perfect pacing and rhyming... I can't say the same about Fred Thompson. Great actor, very questionable presidential material. 555
In that case Macphisto---I like your parody even more:)
Thanks, Tommy and Red... and thanks again, BAD... :)
