Em        G 
If I was president 
                   Am     C 
I?d get elected on Friday 
                Em        G 
Assassinated on Saturday

If I was President 
         Am         C 
If I was President 
 
           Em        G 
An old man told me 
                    Am              C 
Instead of spendin\' billions on the war 
       Em               G 
We can use some of that money 
       Am      C 
In the Ghetto 
               Em      G 
I know some so poor 
        Am                      C 
When it rains, that\'s when they shower 
                    Em           G 
Screamin? fight the power 
       Am                       C 
That\'s when the vault should devour 
 
If I was president 
I\'d get elected on Friday 
Assassinated on Saturday 
Buried on Sunday 
If I was president 
If I was president 
If I was president 
If I was president 
 
But the radio won?t play this 
They call it rebel music 
How can you refuse it 
Children of Moses 
 
If I was president 
I\'d get elected on Friday 
Assassinated on Saturday 
Buried on Sunday 
If I was president 
If I was president 
 
Tell the children the truth, the truth 
Christopher Columbus didn?t discover America 
Tell them the truth, the truth, yeah! 
Tell them about Marcus Garvey 
Tell the children the truth, yeah, the truth 
Tell them about Martin Luther King 
Tell them the truth, the truth 
Tell the about Che Heskey 
 
If I was president 
If I was president 
Elected on Friday 
Assassinated on Saturday 
Buried on Sunday 
If I was president
