Let Mother Vote Songtext
Thank you to the speaker of the house
For giving me the floor to address all of you today
As I have always, always said
We ought to let mother vote
She raised us after all
Won′t we think the ladies we have loved since we were small
It won't disrupt our lives
They′ll still be loyal wives
So, congress, won't you please let mother vote?
But let it be known that the voices of foolish
Agitators in the street did not reach me at all
It was rather the voices of the patriotic ladies
Whose service lies at the heart of the war
And I know how much stronger their heart will beat
If you give them this thing
She'll love like father
Vote like son
And two good votes are better than one
So, congress, won′t you please let mother vote?
For giving me the floor to address all of you today
As I have always, always said
We ought to let mother vote
She raised us after all
Won′t we think the ladies we have loved since we were small
It won't disrupt our lives
They′ll still be loyal wives
So, congress, won't you please let mother vote?
But let it be known that the voices of foolish
Agitators in the street did not reach me at all
It was rather the voices of the patriotic ladies
Whose service lies at the heart of the war
And I know how much stronger their heart will beat
If you give them this thing
She'll love like father
Vote like son
And two good votes are better than one
So, congress, won′t you please let mother vote?
