The Night They Drove our Healthcare Down
With Apologies to Songwriters: Robertson, Robbie & The Band
Virgil Caine is my name and I served on the Tea Party train.
'Til Obama's Union Men came and tore up our signs again!
In the summer of 2009, we were angry, just barely contained
By the Spring of Ten, our Healthcare had fell
It's a time I remember, oh so well
The night they drove our Healthcare down
And the bells were ringing
The night they drove our Healthcare down
And the people were singing
They went, "La, la, la"
Back with my wife in Tennessee, when one day she called to me
"Virgil, quick, come see, there goes Sean Hannity!"
Now I don't mind dyin' for good, and I don't care if the money's no good
Ya take what ya need and ya leave the rest,
But they should never have taken our very best!
The night they drove our Healthcare down
And the bells were ringing
The night they drove our Healthcare down
And all the people were singing
They went, "La, la, la"
Like my father before me, I will work the land.
And like my brother above me, I'll take a rebel stand!
He was just eighteen, proud and brave, but a bu reaucrat laid him in his grave.
I swear by the mud below my feet
You can't raise a Caine back up when he's in defeat
The night they drove our Healthcare down
And the bells were ringing
The night they drove our Healthcare down
And all the people were singing
They went, "Na, na, na"
The night they drove our Healthcare down
And all the bells were ringing
The night they drove our Healthcare down
And the people were singing
They went, "Na, na, na"
ping!.........
