Hugo And Luigi - Young Abe Lincoln lyrics

Raised up in Kentucky

In a cabin cold and bare

Reading by the fireside

He got his learning there

Earned his keep by splitting logs

He grew so lean and strong

He could fight against a bully

Or turn right a mighty wrong

Young Abe Lincoln

Loved all the people

Oh, what a wonderous man was he

What a plain, what a humble man was he

Then he went to Springfield

Started practicing the law

Folks began to know his name

From Maine to Arkansas

But when the people called him

Into politics, he went

'Cause he had a date with destiny

To be the President

Young Abe Lincoln

Loved all the people

Oh, what a wonderous man was he

And his name will remain in memory

When he was elected

O'er his country to preside

Rich or poor, to everyone

His door was open wide

And when he felt the sorrow

Of a nation in distress

What he said will live forever

In the Gettysburg Address

Young Abe Lincoln

Loved all the people

Oh, what a wonderous man was he

What a kind, what an honest man was he

Then one dark and fateful night

That history will recall

He went to the theater

In his silk hat and his shawl

There a shot was fired

By a scoundrel known as Booth

And Abe Lincoln died because

He stood for liberty and truth

Young Abe Lincoln

Loved all the people

Oh, what a wonderous man was he

Gave his life so that

People could be free

Down in Washington

There stands a monument today

People come to honor him

From near and far away

And though it's nigh a century

That he's been dead and gone

His truth goes marching on
