YOUNG ABE LINCOLN
|
|
Well he lived in a cabin way down by the creek
|
He ran through the dust in his bare feet
|
But they didn’t know that one fine day
|
That he would rule this U.S.A.
|
And be the best leader in all the land
|
|
Yes Young Abe Lincoln make a tall tall man
|
Yes Young Abe Lincoln make a tall tall man
|
|
He walked many miles to school every day
|
And no kind of weather could keep him away
|
A learnin’ to read and a learnin’ to write
|
He whipped many men in a wrestlin’ fight
|
He whipped many of ‘em with just one hand
|
|
Yes Young Abe Lincoln make a tall tall man
|
Yes Young Abe Lincoln make a tall tall man
|
|
Now he was admitted to the lawyer’s bar
|
People seeked his help from near and far
|
Ha could talk a country mile in an old court room
|
Make a man laugh whose life was doomed
|
He out talked Douglas or fancy Dan
|
|
Yes Young Abe Lincoln make a tall tall man
|
Yes Young Abe Lincoln make a tall tall man
|
|
We had a big war while he was President
|
Finally won with the U.S. Grant
|
He heard both sides of the battle of rights (wrong)
|
He hated to see those soldiers die
|
He hated to fight his own south land
|
|
Yes Young Abe Lincoln made a tall tall man
