Ballad of Bernie Sanders

[Redone Lyrics to the Hero of Canton]

Bern


The man they call Bern

He called out the rich


And stood up for the poor


Called out the man


And gave him what for


Our love for him now


For that he does earn


The hero of the people


The man they call Bern

Our Bern saw the middle class breaking


He saw the people's lament


And he saw the government takin'


Their dollar and leavin 5 cents


So he said “you can’t do that to my people”


He said “you can’t crush them under your heel”

So Bern stepped up to bat


And in 5 seconds flat


Declared Bullshit on what the One Percent Claimed

He called out the rich


And stood up for the poor


Called out the man


And gave him what for


Our love for him now


Everyday he does earn


The hero of the People


The man they call Bern

Now here is what separates heroes


From common folk like you and I


The man they call Bern


The rich he did spurn


And reassigned their taxes for the poor


He'd use that money for Public Healthcare


He'd use that money for public schooling


The man they call Bern


Our love he does earn


Because he takes on the class wars

He called out the rich


And stood up for the poor


Called out the man


And gave him what for


Our love for him now


Everyday he does earn


The hero of the people


The man they call Bern
