When I first came to town people
I was walkin` down Pennsylvania Avenue
I heard a lot people talking
`bout the White House I decided
I`d drop in there that night
And when I got there I said man
what`s shakin` They said
look man you can`t come in here
this where the President hang out
What you want I said look man
I`m John Lee Hooker I sing the blues
They said the President
don`t have time for the blues
I said look man everybody
got to have the blues sometime
don`t matter where you from
or where you at
I decided to make a run for President
I know everyone got the blues
cause I`m in touch wilt `em
when I sing the blues it`s my life
I got the number one record in Detroit
He`s called Boom Boom
It tells a tremendous story these lyrics
are something else Every time you hear
Boom Boom that`s a dollar change
I don`t need yo money
cause I finance my own campaign
I ain`t for sale I keep a fat bankroll
in my pocket baby big as a hay bale
I want everybody to know
I`m strictly copastatic
I ain`t Republican or Democratic
I got a new program for the nation
It`s gonna be groove time a big sensation
Every man and woman gets one scotch
one bourbon and one beer three times a day
if they stay cool Little chillens gets milk cream
and alcohol two times a day if they stay
involved in school Now boogie chillen
Now I want nine fine lookin` womens
sittin` on the Supreme Court
Their big legs their tight skirts drive me
out of my mind And when
I need a judgment they gonna
give it to me right on time
They call me on the phone sayin`
Johnny we disagree on which one
of us you like best
I said honey you all equally fine under the law
I`m sharp and up to date
Jimmy Reed Vice President Little Johnny
Taylor Secretary of State I got the foreign
policy numbers 444 domestic spending
goin` up continental clothes
Stetson hats everybody`s on the dance floor
All you backbilers and syndicators hear
what I say I ain`t gonna stand for
No trash talking and double dealin`
If I catch you messin` `round the White House
I might cut you I might shoot you
I just don`t know And there`s one point
I really want to proveIf you vote for
John Lee Hooker you know you
gonna groove Don`t be fooled by the Republican
don`t pity the Democratie vote ohn Lee Hooker
and everything gone be mellow
knocked out copastatic
