A
Let's have Christ our president

A               E7      A
Let us have him for our king

A
Cast your vote for the carpenter

A                  E7   A
That they call the Nazarene

A
 The only way

A
 We can ever beat

A                 E7    A
 The crooked politician men

      A
Is to  cast the money-changers

A
 Out of the temple

A       E7        A
Put the Carpenter in

        A
Oh it's Jesus Christ our president

A    E7       A
God above our king

       A
With a job and pension for young and old

        A         E7    A
We will make hallelujah ring
(E7)(A)(E7)(A) (you can do that for as long as you want.) A Every year we waste enough
   A        E7       A
To feed the ones who starve

   A
We build our civilization up

       A        E7        A
And we shoot it down with wars

             A         E7
But with the  Carpenter

A           E7
 On the seat

 A             E7      A    A E7
Away up in the capital town

A       E7
 The USA

A                   E7
 Would be on the way

A   E7     A    E7 A E7 A E7
Prosperity bound
E7 A
