Lyrics
Chasing Presidents
I thought being President could be so fun.
Live in the White House, fly in Air Force One.
My famous face would have a place in history.
Get my picture printed on some currency.
But somewhere, I don't know where, my dream got sold.
That almighty dollar put my plan on hold.
This note is legal tender, In God We Trust.
E Pluribus Unum, ya, and all that stuff.
I spend my life chasing presidents,
Seeking fortune instead of fame.
Goin' broke chasing presidents.
With no one but myself to blame.
I'm on a first-name basis with ol' George and Abe.
Hangin' with Grant and Jackson on good days.
Even all together, they don't add up to much.
Seems I've tried forever, there's never enough.
(repeat Chorus)
Red, white and blue I saw in my dream,
All run together, turning into green . . .
(repeat Chorus)
I've got no one but myself to blame.
I've got no one but myself to blame.
I've got no one but myself to blame.
