Paul Shanklin – The Day Obama Care Dies lyrics

A long, long time ago
I can still remember
Oh, the protests used to make me smile
Cause I knew we could ram it thru
Before they even had a clue
Then maybe they'll shut-up for a while
But the protests grew and made me shiver
Pelosi and Reid could not deliver
Now our push for health care has to wait
Til September [Spoken: or October or next year]
I can't remember if I cried
When I heard the why's and organized
But something told me deep inside
That day National Health Care died.

So I'd lied, lied at every townhall in sight
Drove my Chevy cross the country tryin' to put up a fight
Them good ol' boys were standing right there outside
Sayin' this will be the day that it dies
This will be the day Obama Care dies

We were gonna run it all on our own
But Congressmen and Senators were gettin' stoned back home
That's not how it was supposed to be
We used to be treated like a king and queen
And the sweater she borrowed from ll Bean
And my horse could part the stormy, stormy seas
But now everytime I hit the stage
Bitter crowds appear in fits of rage
Somewhere down in hell
There my members dwell
I was blown away by Bob and Bart
And the redneck neighbors with their pickup truck
But I knew I was out of luck
The day that health care died

Even though I lied, lied at every townhall in sight
Drove my chevy 'cross the country tryin' to put up a fight
The good ol' boys were standing right there outside
Sayin' this will be the day that it dies
This will be the day Obama Care dies
Even though I lied, lied at every townhall in sight
Drove my chevy 'cross the country tryin' to put up a fight
Them good ol' boys were standing right there outside
Sayin' this will be the day that it dies
This will be the day Obama Care dies
[Spoken: Uh... Would you be interested in a health care co-op?]
