Em Bm
I done spent my last three cents
Am Em
Mailing my letter to the president
Em Bm
I didn't make a show, I didn't make a dent
Am Em
So I'm swinging over to this independent gent
G D
Stetson Kennedy
G D
Writing his name in
Em D C D X2
Em Bm
I can't win out to save my soul
Am Em
Long as Smathers-Dupont's got me in the hole
Em Bm
Them war profit boys are squawking and balking
Am Em
That's what's got me out here walking and talking
G D G D
Knocking on doors and windows
G D G D
Wake up and run down election morning
Em D C D
And scribble in Stetson Kennedy
Em Bm
I ain't the world's best writer nor the world's best speller
Am Em
But when I believe in something I'm the loudest yeller
Em Bm
If we fix it so's you can't make money on war
Am Em
We'll all forget what we're killing folks for
G D G D
We'll find us a peace job equal and free
G D G D
Dump Smathers-Dupont in a salty sea
Em D C D Em D C D
Well, this makes Stetson Kennedy the man for me
