I Wanna Grow Up To Be A Politician lyrics
by The Byrds



(Roger McGuinn and Jacques Levy)I want to grow up to be a politicianAnd take over this beautiful landI want to grow up to be a politicianAnd be the old U.S. of A.'s number one manI'll always be tough but I'll never be scaryI want to shoot guns or butter my breadI'll work in the towns or conservate the prairiesAnd you can believe the future's aheadI'll give the young the right to vote as soon as they matureBut spare the rod and spoil the child to help them feel secureAnd if I win election day I might give you a jobI'll sign a bill to help the poor to show I'm not a snobI'll open my door I'm charging no admissionAnd you can be sure I'll give you my handI want to grow up to be a politicianAnd take over this beautiful landInstrumental (Brass Band)I'll make you glad you got me in with everything I doAnd I'll defend until the end the old red white and blueI want to grow up to be a politicianAnd take over this beautiful landAnd take over this beautiful landAnd take over this beautiful landİ BMI
