歌曲歌詞
The bullets of the false revenge
Have struck us once again
As the angry seas have
Struck upon the sand
And it seemed as though a friendless
World had lost itself a friend
That was the President and that was the man
I still can see him smiling there
And waving at the crowd
As he drove through the music of the band
And never even knowing no
More time would be allowed
Not for the President and not for the man
Here's a memory to share
Here's a memory to save
Of the sudden early ending of command
Yet a part of you and a part of
Me is buried in his grave
That was the President and that was the man
It's not only for the leader
That the sorrow hits so hard
There are greater things
I'll never understand
How a man so filled with life
Even death was caught off guard
That was the President and that was the man
Every thing he might have
Done and all he could have been
Was proven by the troubled traitors hand
For what other death could
Wound the hearts of so many men
That was the President and that was the man
Yes the glory that was Lincoln's
Never died when he was slain
It's been carried over time and time again
And to the list of honor you may add another name
That was the President and that was the man
That was the President and that was the man
