Hank Williams Jr. – Mr Lincoln lyrics

Hank Williams Jr. – Mr Lincoln lyrics

(Chorus:)
Mr. Lincoln I wish you were here
The Republics changed alot in a hundred years
I don't think its working like you planned
Mr Lincoln we sure could use a hand

I just read the headlines in the Nashville News
And I wish I made this up but I'm afraid its true
Cause a man was murdered for his money in the street
He was takin his wife to a nice place to eat
When they caught the man he did 23 months of time
He plead insanity like they do now all the time
Sir what would you have done in 1859
Now if you shoot someone sir you can get off scott free
Its the latest thing mr Lincoln can you believe
Now they sue the manufactures of the guns
Aint the law changed alot since 1861

[Chorus:]

I just heard the new story on the radio
They let dangerous men outta prison now yes sir I'm afraid its so
Because theyre overcrowded and it was only his fifth offense
And this time hes killed someone does that make any sense
Now my lawyer called me about a nuisance case
Cause everybody sues over any little thing these days
Well at least we're right all we gotta do is tell the truth

He said youre living in the past you romantic fool
I said you got that right I lean toward the older ways
And theres damn few back woods lawyers left today

(Chorus 2x)

this is off topic but I just read a paper on hank Williams jr song Mr lincoln by PopMatters. if the website says anything to you it is most definitely going to be so left-sided that it is crazy. It sent as far as to say that hank is a right-wing extremist and willing to do anything to get Trump in office. I don't know who wrote that paper but I am pretty sure the song was made in 1984. People these days are so fucking stupid lmao. I don't care how you get a song Mr lincoln is about our 45th president lol how fucking brain dead do you have to be the song is titled Mr lincoln for christ's sake man. He was basically saying how the country wasn't going as lincoln has planned it to go, Biden ain't making that any better ya feel me. who to do you elect a dude that has to have a script to read for anything he does and if he doesn't have a script then he stutters and misspoke, I kinda get why people are saying we are the laughing stock of the work right now. It is outragest that everything has to be so political these days. In 2021 you can't have a normal convo without a kid saying orange man bad lol. I not the biggest trump supporter but I ain't no fucking Biden supporter either but you have to pick the lesser of two evils. I do hope that our country can turn around the ways we are going in.I k ow no one is going to see this anytime soon but I will tell ya how fucked up Biden is in the head is trying to make a law where trans people can playgirl sports like wtf why don't you just make an all-trans team keep them, weirdos, out of the normal people sports. He is doing nothing well. For christ's sake, the first thing he did was bomb Syria and now our gas and oil prices went up bc of this dumbass.
