The Presidents

The Presidents
There’s 44
We can learn ‘em all by our self
Let me see you learn ‘em aye! X2
Let me see you learn ‘em aye!

The President
In the white house
They did it did it did it did it now they’re done wit’ it

Some were democrats
Others republican’s
Even Federalists
And then those wiggly Whigs

The first president George Washington
Elected from Virginia age 57
John Adams! What’s up?! Got U.S. fired up
Jefferson! What’s up?! Set the declaration up!

Its James…Madison
Fourth commander in Chief yeah that’s the one
Its James… Monroe
The Missouri Compromise, Fo Sho!

It is the Bill of Rights!

A-M-E-N-D-M-E-N-T Wooopeee
A-M-E-N-D-M-E-N-T Wooopeee
Do you know what that means?
We have our own Bill
We have our own Rights
They are in the Constitution, so lets get them right

It's the Bill of Rights
It's the Bill of Rights
It's the Bill of Rights
It's the Bill of Rights

A-M-E-N-D-M-E-N-T Wooopeee
Do you know what that means?

United States just relax
We have the freedom of the press
Religion, speech, assembly, you better respect

We have the right to bear arms
To keep a militia
Second Amendment you know it sista

No housing troops
In times of peace yall
Searches and seizures with a good reason

You got enough proof?
So the jury can decide
if the accused will go to trial

Also the criminals
Have the right
To a speedy and fast
Fair public trial

More than 20 bucks
That a person sues for
It's the law
That you go to court

Bail and punishment
not too harsh though
8th Amendment two more to go

A-M-E-N-D-M-E-N-T Wooopeee
A-M-E-N-D-M-E-N-T Wooopeee
Do you know what that means?
We have our own Bill
We have our own Rights
They are in the Constitution, so lets get them right

It's the Bill of Rights
It's the Bill of Rights
It's the Bill of Rights
It's the Bill of Rights

Powers reserved not only to the people
Use your common sense to figure out what that means yo

This is the last one I'm gonna say
10th says powers reserved to the states

These are the Amendments
I only said ten,
27 in all so come back again

A-M-E-N-D-M-E-N-T Wooopeee
A-M-E-N-D-M-E-N-T Wooopeee
Do you know what that means?
We have our own Bill
We have our own Rights
They are in the Constitution, so lets get them right

It's the Bill of Rights
It's the Bill of Rights
It's the Bill of Rights
It's the Bill of Rights
