President Lyrics
[YOUNGER BROTHER, spoken]
The Republican vice-presidential candidate was to be in the city that evening to attend a rally. The Secret Service was at the ready. The recent assassination of President McKinley had been a lesson well-learned. Guns were going off everywhere.
[SARAH, spoken]
I'll tell him
(sung)
President, I am coming to you
On behalf of Coalhouse Walker
He don't know I'm here
He's much too proud
And I ain't much of a talker
But President, he needs your help, sir
You're the only one
'Cause Coalhouse, he won't marry me
Till this thing is done
And President, we got a son
(spoken)
President! President!
[MORGAN, spoken]
She's got a gun! I saw a gun!
