From the classic country song by Tennessee Ernie Ford, "Sixteen Tons"
Sixteen Tons of Pork!*
A Paddy Whack©
We sent you all to Congress in the hope you would shine
You got there to Washington but didn't toe the line
We need you to keep our sovereignty
No more violence to our liberty
(Chorus)
You load pork on top of every last bill
If you don't get the picture then my vote you ne'er will
Campaigners don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I will not vote for another RINO
Well, if you can't spend responsibly then step aside
Your RINO ways we cannot abide
Tax and spend, your conscience weak
Reform today or you'll lose your seat.
(Chorus)
You load pork on top of every last bill
If you don't get the picture then my vote you ne'er will
Campaigners don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I will not vote for another RINO
Don't Want Cap & Trade and we Don't Want Healthcare
Those Socialist programs never go anywhere
We want tort reform, tax cuts for good
Won't you just do what you know you should?
(Chorus)
You load pork on top of every last bill
If you don't get the picture then my vote you ne'er will
Campaigners don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I will not vote for another RINO
If you want to stay in office then our voice you should hear
We don't want illegals to remain over here
We need the fence and to enforce the law
Ignoring that is the very last straw.
(Chorus)
You load pork on top of every last bill
If you don't get the picture then my vote you ne'er will
Campaigners don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I will not vote for another RINO
Don't ya tell me brother that our party is good
Conservative ways you've misunderstood
And as for that bullet train: Obamacare
We say No Way! Listen, Don't You Dare!
(Chorus)
You load pork on top of every last bill
If you don't get the picture then my vote you ne'er will
Campaigners don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I will not vote for another RINO
With November comin' better think some more
We sent you in to watch over the store
Come election day our wrath will rise
We're tellin' you now we've had our fill of your lies
(Chorus)
You load pork on top of every last bill
If you don't get the picture then my vote you ne'er will
Campaigners don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I will not vote for another RINO
