Tips from the gaggle
- Read the lyrics through once silently before singing.
- If the original tune is unfamiliar, look it up first.
- Modify freely. Every gaggle adapts songs to local issues.
SING IT to the tune of Row / Row Your Boat
Float, float, float the boat,
Trickle down no more.
Dump Trump overboard
He’s rotten to the core.
Float, float, float the boat,
We need health care for all.
When we’re not ill, we all can work.
And wealth will rise, not fall.
Float, float, float the boat,
Vote The Green New Deal.
Save the earth and make good jobs
And help our country heal.
Float, float, float the boat,
Make the weakest strong.
Learn to paddle together again,
A land where all belong.
Float, float, float the boat,
Paddle hard upstream.
Make our nation whole once more.
Restore the American Dream.
