The President stepped off the silver screen
He said, ''People, put your lives here in my hand.''
We can turn our country's honor white again
Let the sulfer smoke of progress fill our land.''

'Cause we've got government on horseback again
Back to the day when congressmen were men
We can make it on our own, running on testosterone
It's government or horseback again

''Help me give our land a golden goose
Turn our native corporations loose
High-voltage lines will go the extra mile 
Now it's power to the people nuclear style.''

'Cause we've got government on horseback again
Back to the day when congressmen were men
We can make it on our own, running on testosterone
It's government or horseback again

Blow out the lamp beside the golden door
We don't need cheap foreign labor anymore
Without the unions and the ERA
We will have twice the jobs at half the pay

'Cause we've got government on horseback again
Back to the day when congressmen were men
We can make it on our own, running on testosterone
It's government or horseback again

Back again, back again
Yes, we've got government on horseback again
It's back to home for the mommies
Bomb the hell out of the Commies
It's government on horseback again
