C F
Folks in Florida cast their votes
C G C
As all good citizens do
F
In West Palm Beach, the ballots read
C G
'To vote for One, punch Two
F C
And once you've punched it, punch it again,
G
And give it another good push
C F
You thought you voted for Gore, surprise!!
C G C
You cast your ballot for Bush.'
F C
In Florida the sun is shining
G
It's early bird dining
C
And early to bed
F C
The Republicans said: “Stop the counting”
G
Gore's total is mounting
C
Let's quit while we're ahead
C F
Katherine Harris hit the switch
C G C
Saying, 'This vote's certified
F
Off the Democrats went to court
C G
Like hell the Republicans cried
F C
A hundred million votes were cast
G
Including yours and mine
C F
But in the end the only ones
C G C
That counted numbered nine
C F
The boys and girls in black robes met
C G C
And held a tug of war
F
And when they cast their votes at last
C G
Bush won it, 5 to 4
F C
Five judges selected the president
G
Five judges had their way
C F
And I expect they'll all retire
C G C
To Florida some day
