Lyrics
Well, Ben Franklin was a righteous dude
He was one of the founding fathers
He was smart and never rude
And he liked France and feathers
(It’s true!)
He invented electricity and bifocals
Glass harmonicas and safety belts
He didn’t like the Stamp Act
But he did like hats made of felt
BRIDGE
Ooh, Ben Franklin!
First President of the United States!
Ooh, Ben Franklin!
Was there ever anybody as great?
Ben Franklin was a friend of Jesus
But that doesn’t mean he was a saint!
He liked ladies and he freed his slaves
And he even invented a kind of paint!
Ben published lots of almanacks
They were popular and full of facts
He wrote lots of sayings and such
Nobody would say he didn’t get out much
BRIDGE
Instrumental verse
Ben Franklin was the best dude ever
He made all the people see
If you’re gonna send a letter
You have to pay the post office fee!
Instrumental verse
BRIDGE
VERSE
Ooh, Ben Franklin!
Ooh, ooh, Ben Franklin!
