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!
