I Could Never Be President
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
If I became President, I know I won`t last a day
I would lower all the taxes just to suit your taste
I`d bring home all the fellers from over in Viet Nam
Station them around your door so the world can`t do you no harm
I`d name every street in the city, Honey, after you (yeah yeah yeah)
In the fight against poverty, there`s no limit to what I`d do
I could never be President
Just as long as I`m lovin` you
I could never be President
Just as long as I`m lovin` you, you
Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah
Honey I would make you, the first lady of the land
Thank you for using Top40db.com.
Don`t you know I`d place presidental powers in your hand
Congress would veto the first bill I would pass
First would be: tear the Whitehouse down, build you a house of glass
And stake out the Navy on every downtown street
So your little feet won`t get so tired when you go on a shopping spree
I could never be President
Just as long as I`m lovin` you
I could never be President
Just as long as I`m lovin` you, you
Ouww! Ouwwwwww!
{I could never be President}
{I could never be President}
Honey to make sure, you never never have a care
I`d open up the door to Fort Knox, tell you to help yourself
And give you a nation, if that didn`t seem to do
I`d send up a Gemini player to stake a claim on the moon for you
I could never be President
Just as long as I`m lovin` you
I could never be President
Just as long as I`m lovin` you
I`d give you a nation
If that didn`t seem to do
I could never be your President
Just as long as I`m lovin` you
Wooooe baby
Just as long as I`m lovin` you
Ouwwwwww
