The Ballad of Al Gore
(sung to the Ballad of Jed Clampett)


Come listen to my story 'bout a man named Gore
A snippy Democrat, who was really quite a bore
On election day of his Presidential bout
he thought he lost the fight but he got to recount

ballots that is...punch cards... butterflies

Well the next thing you know they're countin' 'em again
He lost a second time so he gave it all a spin
They said Palm Beach is the place you oughta be
So he hired legal experts from from the town of Tallahassee

Florida that is... sunshine state... deadlocked

Well the next thing you know they wanna change the rules
And play around with votes cause they think we're friggin fools
they riled lots of folks and they made alotta fuss
Till Cheney came along and started
kickin' butts

Buttocks that is... liberal hineys... left-wing tuchas

Al whinned that the system wasn't fair
After countin' ballot holes that weren't even there
Kate Harris said that the recount was a joke
But that didn't stop the liberals from tallin' votes

Democrat votes that is... hangin' chad... dimpled ballots

Well the Supreme Court gave Gore another break
They let him count again because the party was at stake
But just when he thought that his dream was born anew
The overseas votes gave it to "W"

George W that is... Texas Governor...President-elect

Now its time to say good-bye to Al and all his kin
he tried to steal some votes but it didn't help him win
You're all invited to his house in Tennessee
To sit around and blubber at his pity-parteeee

Nashville that is...pout awhile... have some sour grapes


y'll have fun now...Ya hear?
