The Preamble

[Intro]
Hey, do you know about the USA?
Do you know about the government?
Can you tell me about the Constitution?
Hey, learn about the USA

[Verse 1]
In 1787, I'm told
Our founding fathers did agree
To write a list of principles
For keepin' people free

The USA was just startin' out
A whole brand-new country
And so our people spelled it out
The things that we should be

[Pre-Chorus 1]
And they put those principles down on paper and called it the Constitution
And it's been helping us run our country ever since then
The first part of the Constitution is called the preamble
And tells what those founding fathers set out to do

[Chorus]
We the People
In Order to form a more perfect Union
Establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility
Provide for the common defense
Promote the general Welfare, and
Secure the Blessings of Liberty
To ourselves and our Posterity
Do ordain and establish this Constitution
For the United States of America

[Verse 2]
In 1787 I'm told
Our founding fathers all sat down
And wrote a list of principles
That's known the world around

The USA was just starting out
A whole brand-new country
And so our people spelled it out
They wanted a land of liberty

[Pre-Chorus 2]
And the Preamble goes like this:

[Chorus]
We the People
In Order to form a more perfect Union
Establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility
Provide for the common defense
Promote the general Welfare, and
Secure the Blessings of Liberty
To ourselves and our Posterity
Do ordain and establish this Constitution
For the United States of America

For the United States of America...
