Parody Song Title:
"There's No Kentucky Prez"
The Lyrics
There's never been been a Kentucky Preisdent.
I don't think that there'll be one soon.
The Bluegrass Sate boasts no White House resident,
So Old Ribber sings a mournful tune.
Abe was born here, but he's really Illinois.
(Hawaii should not claim Big O.)
Lincoln moved away when he was a little boy.
(The Aloha State should man up, you know.)
No Kentucky POTUS,
But we'll have one some day.
For our nation lost a great opportunity
When we didn't turn to old Henry Clay.
We've had three Veeps. That's as close as we could come.
A trio who merit a look.
Richard Johnson was not one half as good as some -
Quite unlike his boss Old Kinderhook.
John Breckenridge - ran 'gainst Abe for President,
Then fought for the rebels in gray.
And Truman's Veep? Alban Barkley - what a gent -
And he coined the word "Veep" we use today.
No Kentucky POTUS.
No, not one on the roll.
And the U.S.A. won't elect a man today
From a state thast gives us booze. smokes, and coal!
Will there be soon? Might as well howl at the moon.
No hero that stands proud and tall.
No senator who can make the public swoon,
For we've only got old Mitch and Rand Paul.
Perhaps in some future age we'll be in luck.
Arriving upon Air Force One -
The U.S. Prez, bred and raised in Old Kentuck -
Hope that he or she will not bring a gun!
No Kentucky POTUS,
Not one in history.
But if we are caught in a jam I'll gladly help.
I can serve as President - 'cause I'm free.
