Chorus: Vote for Jordan! We want Jordan!

All right folks of this thriving community: if I'm elected your President, every Sunday evening at 2:30 I'll entertain your kiddies on the White House Lawn!

Chorus: We want Jordan!

All right folks -- if you send me to Washington as your leader, I'll personally see to it that every living American gets his portion. Right after I get mine.

Chorus: Yeah! Vote for Jordan!

All right folks -- we all are worried about the coming election.
But you know, folks, we got to make the proper selection,
And I want to get all you people straight
About all the candidates.
Now if you want a man with a good offer,
Vote for Kefauver.
And you can rest and be assured:
You'll get no graft from Taft.
But if you want administration that'll groove you,
That'll move you and keep you sent:
Chorus: Vote for Jordan for President!
That's me folks, on The Swing Ticket

Now if you want to get the military bit straight,
We all know that MacArthur would be great.
And if you want a hipster that'll take no sassin'.
Then vote for Stassen.
But if you want to walk on the Sunny Side of The Street
With a candidate with beat:
Chorus: Vote for Jordan for President!
That's right folks!

You know folks, I'm not running a chicken in the pot campaign --
Everybody's gonna drink champagne!
And in every city,
I'm going to install a rhythm committee.
Pass out those cigars, boy!
And on my birthday everybody in the USA's gonna get new shoes.
We're going dancing, nobody'll get the blues.
No longer will I be on a phonograph record,
I'm gonna be on Congressional Record.

If you want the man of the hour,
Then vote for Eisenhower.
And ladies and gentlemen, don't sit there and sob,
'Cause Truman don't want the job!
But if you want a candidate that's real cool,
Don't vote for the elephant OR the mule:
Vote for me!
Chorus: Vote for Jordan for President!
Folks if you send me to Washington, we ALL will serve ...
Time.
Chorus: Vote for Jordan for President!
I'll put everybody on relief.
Chorus: Vote for Jordan for President!
If you want to hustle with Russell, go 'head.
Chorus: Vote for Jordan for President!
Folks if you stick with me I'll put everybody in the rail.
Chorus: Vote for Jordan for President!
Write me in, folks!
Chorus: Vote for Jordan for President!

(Louis Jordan/ Fletcher Peck, 1952)
