Woodrow Wilson Lyrics

Vic Chesnutt Woodrow Wilson

she said her father looked like Woodrow Wilson
she said her father looked like Woodrow Wilson
presiding from behind prescription lenses
she said her father looked like Woodrow Wilson

she said her mother act like a first lady
she said her mother act like a first lady
she'd been having those problems lately
she said she's going to the clinic on Wednesday

she said her brother wished he was a negro
she said her brother wished he was a negro
went to school in african-american studies
once he had a picture taken with Adam Clayton Powell

she said her father looked like Woodrow Wilson
she said her father looked like Woodrow Wilson
I saw him once and thought he looked just a little bit like Truman
I know for a fact he has an Eisenhower ashtray
