This song was recorded at home with my Apple iBook and Sound Studio 2.2.3. The only mic I used was the one built into the laptop.
Folksinger/songwriter/poet
I'm a singer/songwriter who enjoys covering a good song regardless of where it's been.
Story behind the song
This song was written in the folk tradition of writing new lyrics to an old folk song. I based this song on my recollection of "Roll On, Buddy, Roll On."
Lyrics
Roll on, Mr. President, Roll on.
Roll on, Mr. President, Roll on.
You wouldn't row so slow, if you knew what I know.
So, Roll on, Mr. President, Roll on.
We're coming to Washington, DC.
