SING IT to the tune of Caissons Go Marching Along

Over hill, over dale we will bite the fascist tail

We the people go marching along

 

Counter march round about, we will vote the cowards out

We the people go marching along

 

For it’s hi hi he as we vote out trumpery

Count on the voters loud and strong

Where e’er you go, you will always know

We the people go marching along

 

In the storm, in the night we will vote. It is our right

We the people go marching along

 

Counter march, round about we can’t wait to vote him out

We the people go marching along

 

For it’s hi hi he as we march to victory

Count on your voters loud and strong

Where e’er you go you will always know

We the people will vote till he’s gone.
