For George W Bush
A parody of Tammy Wynette's Stand By Your Man
Sometimes it's hard to be an American
Giving all your support to the main man in charge
You'll hate the way he handles things
And he'll hate the way you want him to be
He'll mess up
Screw up and make some mistakes
Maybe even some really dumb ones
But if you're true red, white and blue
Deep down in your heart and soul
You'll forgive him
Even through sometimes he's a fool who's hard to understand
And if you're doing your patriotic duty
Oh be proud of him
Just like you would a baby taking that first step
That first step out into the big bad world
'Cause after all he's no god
He's just a man
Stand by your president
Give him a thumbs-up
Even if you think he's acting like a jerk
Give him some hope and something warm to cling to
When his hard worry filled nights are cold and lonely
Stand by your president
And tell the terrorists they can all go to hell
Cos no matter what you'll still support him
Giving him all the encouragement you can
Stand by your president
Stand by your president
And tell the terrorists they can all go to hell
Cos no matter what you'll still support him
Giving him all the encouragement you can
Stand by your president
