BENGHAZI BLUES (To the tune of Folsom Prison Blues)

 

I hear a train a coming

It’s rolling ‘round the bend

I ain’t seen nothing like this

Since I don’t know when

The cover-up’s unraveling

It’s getting worse each day

Soon heads will be rollin’

Somebody’s got to pay!

 

The truth is they’ve been lying

In each and every way

They thought we must be stupid

And they could have their way

But that train still keeps on coming

I hear it more each day

Soon heads will be rollin’

Somebody’s got to pay!

 

The White House sure is sweating,

The State Department too

They’ve both run out lies

They don’t know what to do

But that train still keeps on coming

I hear it more each day

Soon heads will be rollin’

Somebody’s got to pay!

 

The threat was really obvious

Getting worse every day

Our people begged for mercy,

But none was on the way

It wasn’t that important

Who needs security?

“I gave a speech in Cairo

The World’s in love with me!”

 

But this time it really matters

Our Ambassador is gone

And far too many people

Know that this was really wrong

So that train it keeps on coming

I hear it more each day

Soon heads will be rollin’

Somebody’s got to pay!
