The ole’ Covid Cowboy caught my ear again. He done tol’e me he searched the holy list of lyrics and in the Woods behind Yasgur’s Farm, his two favorite Angels, Lo and Behold helped him re-discover that resounding cheer by Country Joe and the Fish which shall forever be ensconced in history. Here is what he sang to me:
Gimme a V Gimme an O Gimme a T Gimme an E
What’s that spell?? (Vote) What’s that Spell?? (vote) WHAT’S THAT SPELL??
Come you sisters and bretheren Uncle Sam needs your help again
Got himself in a terrible jam Fair Elections are at risk again
Protect your vote let’s get the job done We’re gonna have a whole lot of fun
And it’s 1 2 3 what are we fighting for?
For One vote one man No ballots in the garbage can
And it’s 5 6 7 open up the polling place
If mail-in ballots win the day The Country’s done lost its way.
Yep, better than a bucket of warm spit.
I just had to share.
Use it or lose it, That’s what’s fair.
