Stetson Kennedy

[Verse 1]

I done spent my last three cents

Mailing my letter to the President

Didn't make a show, I didn't make a dent

So I'm swinging over to this independent gent

[Bridge]

Stetson Kennedy

Writing his name in

Stetson Kennedy

Writing his name in

[Verse 2]

I can't win out to save my soul

Long as Smathers-DuPont's got me in the hole

Them war profit boys are squawking and balking

That's what's got me out here walking and talking

[Verse 3]

Knocking on doors and windows

Wake up and run down election morning

And scribble in Stetson Kennedy

[Verse 4]

I am not the world's best writer, I am not the world's best speller

But when I believe in something I'm the loudest yeller

If we fix it so you can't make no money on war

Well we'll all forget what we was killing folks for

[Verse 5]

We'll find us a peace job equal and free

We'll dump Smathers-Dupont in a salty sea

Well, this makes Stetson Kennedy the man for me
