Chorus:
The president is in charge of the nation
Let's all have a celebration!
Let's remember Washington and Lincoln
Without them, our country would be sinkin'!
Verse 1:
George Washington, the first President
The Father of His Country they named him
His face is on a quarter and a one-dollar bill
In the Revolutionary War, he was a general
People salute George Washington
Our capital city is named after him
He had white hair and a white frilly collar
Some say he chopped down the cherry tree of his father
Verse 2:
Abraham... Lincoln was his name
But some people called him "Honest Abe"
His face is on a penny and a five-dollar bill
He was the sixteenth President... What a thrill!
He fought against slavery in our nation
with the Emancipation Proclamation
He had a big beard and a big top hat
He lived in a log cabin
How about that?
