Oscar Brand - Monroe Is The Man lyrics

Oh say sov'reign people whose voice is the law Whose will is supreme and keeps faction in awe Who shall o'er the Union dear vessel preside And sit at the helm and her course wisely guide Among the best pilots say who leads the van, MONROE--yes MONROE--he indeed is the man Among the best pilots say who leads the van, MONROE--yes MONROE--he indeed is the man Who cares not for office, nor power, or place, whose merits and virtues the highest would race. Whose country is his idol, her good all his care And in terrible times who did never despair. In peace and in war--who can act, who can plan MONROE--yes MONROE--he indeed is the man In peace and in war--who can act, who can plan MONROE--yes MONROE--he indeed is the man
