    Lyrics
    I'm a republican
    Sitting in my easy chair,
    In my mortgaged home,
    On the right side of the tracks.

    I am a veteran
    Of a foreign war
    I served my country well
    On my own accord

    My hair is short,
    Cut close to the scalp.
    I like it that way.
    I'm right, you're wrong,
    What was that?
    I can't hear what you say!

    I'm on the right side
    I'm on the right side
    The only side
    I'm a republican
    Doo-doo-doo (etc.)

    I'm a republican
    Sitting in my easy chair
    Watching the game of the week
    With a six-pack by my side.

    I subscribe to magazines
    Field and Stream,
    Soldier of Fortune,
    National Geographic too!

    I don't want blacks or Mexicans
    In my neighborhood!
    They steal, deal drugs,
    And drive down property values!

    I'm on the right side
    I'm on the right side
    The only side
    I'm a republican
    Doo-doo-doo (etc.)

    (Instrumental)

    I'm a republican
    I believe in gun control.
    I've got all my guns
    under my control.

    I don't need security
    I've got a Colt 45 in here with me
    I'll scare off intruders
    In my fatigues, flack jacket and army boots!

    My neck is red,
    My collar blue.
    I like it that way.
    I don't hear liberals talking to me
    I don't see things their way.

    I'm on the right side
    I'm on the right side
    The only side
    I'm a republican
    Doo-doo-doo (etc.)
