The cruel war must have an end; <br />I'll tell you what we'll do; <br />We'll cast our votes for 'Little Mac,' <br />We're bound to put him through. <br />The widow's wails and orphan's tears <br />Prevailing o'er the land <br />Pray heaven to send a rare relief- <br />McClellan is the man. <br /> <br />CHORUS: <br />Shout! boys, shout! <br />and rally all you can, <br />We'll have another Washington- <br />McClellan is the man! <br /> <br />Corruption sits in places high, <br />And Shoddy rules the roast; <br />'Fight on!' is still Corruption's cry, <br />'More spoils!' is Shoddy's boast. <br />But we, the people, sov'reigns all, <br />Declare our righteous cause; <br />'The Constitution as it is, <br />The Union as it was.' <br /> <br />CHORUS <br /> <br />This cruel war will never cease <br />Until the South comes back; <br />The only man to do the work <br />Is glorious 'Little Mac.' <br />Then let us put him in the chair, <br />And he will give us peace; <br />For 'Peace in Union' is his sin, <br />And war's alarms will cease. <br /> <br />CHORUS <br /> <br />Let's heal dissentions and unite, <br />Then, stronger than be-fore, <br />We'll bear our banner through the world, <br />The flag our fathers bore. <br />In many stripes and golden stars <br />Shall give the people ease; <br />And all th'opressed of every clime <br />Will hail our happy peace. <br /> <br />CHORUS <br /> <br />The hot-heads South cried 'Let's secede,' <br />But find it doesn't pay; <br />The hot-heads North cried 'Confiscate, <br />And then we'll have our way.' <br />But both have failed and always will; <br />There is a better plan: <br />We'll choose a righteous President- <br />McClellan is the man! <br /> <br />CHORUS<br /><br />William Shakespeare Hays<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/mcclellan-is-the-man/
