Tax Day Singalong
Here’s Public Works‘ singalong video of Irving Berlin’s 1942 song, “I Paid My Taxes Today,” performed by Gene Autry. Lyrics below:
I said to my Uncle Sam
“Old Man Taxes, here I am”
And he was glad to see me.
Mister Small Fry, yes, indeed.
Lower brackets, that’s my speed.
But he was glad to see me.
I paid my income tax today.
I never felt so proud before,
To be right there with the millions more
Who paid their income tax today.
I’m squared up with the USA
See those bombers in the sky,
Rockefeller helped to build ‘em.
So did I.
I PAID MY INCOME TAX TODAY
