Monroe Is the Man Lyrics

Oh say sov'reign people whose voice is the law
Whose will is supreme and keeps faction in awe
Who shall o'er the Union dear vessel preside
And sit at the helm and her course wisely guide

Among the best pilots say who leads the van,
MONROE--yes MONROE--he indeed is the man
Among the best pilots say who leads the van,
MONROE--yes MONROE--he indeed is the man

Who cares not for office, nor power, or place,
Whose merits and virtues the highest would race.
Whose country is his idol, her good all his care
And in terrible times who did never despair.

In peace and in war--who can act, who can plan
MONROE--yes MONROE--he indeed is the man
In peace and in war--who can act, who can plan
MONROE--yes MONROE--he indeed is the man
