Lyrics

[00:03.82] I wanna dedicate this song to every workin’
[00:06.39] man and woman in this country
[00:08.30] and to everyone that’s tryin’ to run a business
[00:10.83] and constantly punished, taxed
[00:13.54] and regulated by the federal government.
[00:16.53]
[00:22.57] I’m goin’ to call up a talk show
[00:25.14] I’m goin’ to give ‘em a piece
[00:27.59] I don’t give a damn about Iran
[00:30.45] Or the Middle East
[00:33.39] Though they’ve been fightin’ for about 2000 years
[00:37.33]
[00:38.49] And we send billions to Mexico and Zimbabwe
[00:43.86] Well, I think it’s time for America
[00:46.53] to watch her own store
[00:49.49] So here is my question to everyone
[00:55.08] Who is taking care of number one?
[00:58.96]
[01:00.46] New Hampshire got it right, live free or die
[01:04.14]
[01:05.39] Don’t sit on us and tell us how to run our lives
[01:09.84]
[01:10.77] No matter where you go
[01:13.41] Everyone would like to know
[01:16.29] Can Washington D.C. mind her store?
[01:20.38]
[01:21.57] Is there a soul still down on the farm?
[01:25.78]
[01:27.31] And who is taking care of number one?
[01:31.09]
[01:51.36] Our glorious leader just got back
[01:53.98] from China and Japan
[01:56.69] Where it gave away our job, put us
[01:59.44] down and sold out our plans
[02:02.01] Well people here at home are tired
[02:04.79] of fail program and loan
[02:07.36] I believe they meant to change
[02:09.76] all this stuff that’s going on
[02:12.77] It’s time for Americans to mind their own store
[02:18.13] And here is my question for everyone
[02:23.71] Who is taking care of number one?
[02:27.88]
[02:29.14] New Hampshire got it right, live free or die
[02:34.21] Don’t sit on us and try to run our lives
[02:39.29] Now it don’t matter where you go
[02:42.33] Everybody would like to know
[02:45.14] Can Washington D.C. run her store? (No)
[02:50.47] Is there a soul still down on the farm?
[02:55.96] And who is taking care of number one?
[03:00.47]
[03:06.59] Don’t need to be giving all this money away
[03:08.60] to all these other fellows.
[03:10.80] We need it right here at home.
[03:17.10]
[03:19.22] You know like 2 and 2 is 4, do you get it?
