The Grand Old Party, it's the GOP Many from this party want the country more conservative Believing government should remain small and be reserved a bit And do things only that citizens on their own cannot The elephant is the party symbol and mascot Do you who you support yet? "Hardly" Well maybe consider voting for a third party Usually the underdog, and it's evident N o third party candidate has ever been president Some voters won't let that change what they decide Start up the campaign; you're in for a ride CHORUS VERSE 2: Well, the very first party in this country to exist Was the party that was known as the Federalists It was started by the man Alexander Hamilton Wanted strong central government, that was his plan Thomas Jefferson and James Madison did begin A group called Democratic-Republicans They cut spending and made state powers strong Appealed to farmers who labored all year long But in the 1800's, those parties fell apart And the Democrats that we know today had their start At their heart was Andrew Jackson who wanted social action The vote of farmers and workers is what he was attracting The faction that opposed them were Democratic foes and Were known as the Whigs, a British name chosen No, not those that you wear on your head But those that said the government is limited But then the Whigs began bickering before the Civil War Some formed the Republicans in 1854 And the one to represent them: Abraham Lincoln The first president to be a Republican And though they've been changing, still change along the way Republicans and Democrats are what we have today They each hold primaries, party elections And nominate the winners at the party conventions Join rappers Shoeless Jeff & Scott Free as they throw a party to celebrate the political parties of the United States - as well as learn about their history.
