Stand Up for America! - George Wallace Campaign Song

George Corley Wallace Jr. (August 25, 1919 – September 13, 1998) was an American politician who served as the 45th governor of Alabama for four terms. A member of the Democratic Party, he is best remembered for his staunch segregationist and populist views. During his tenure, he promoted "industrial development, low taxes, and trade schools." Wallace sought the United States presidency as a Democrat three times, and once as an American Independent Party candidate, unsuccessfully each time. Wallace opposed desegregation and supported the policies of "Jim Crow" during the Civil Rights Movement, declaring in his 1963 inaugural address that he stood for "segregation now, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever. Lyrics: From north to south, To east to west Listen and you'll hear: The voice of George C. Wallace Ringing loud and clear He's speaking to America His words are wise and true And if you really love your country Here's what you'll do: Stand up for America! Let's vote to keep it free We're about to be destroyed By a "great" society There's rioting and looting And the cities being burned How much more will it take For Washington to learn? Take time to look around you: At the problems that we face You'll see that the "great" society Has been a great disgrace. Stand up for America! Let's vote to keep it free The Texan is going back to his ranch, That's where he ought to be! America was founded As sovereign states with right, Now the states are being conquered By Washington with might Our constitution gives the states The sovereign right to choose Their form of local government; That's right, we must not lose! Stand up for America! Let's vote to keep it free And help to make it a Much better land For folks like you and me! America needs Wallace, So vote with confidence! Stand up for America: And elect him president! And elect him president!
