Gene Autry - I Paid My Income Tax Today Lyrics
I said to my Uncle Sam
Old Man Taxes, here I am
And he
Was glad to see me
Mister Small Fry, yes, indeed
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 U.S.A.
See those bombers in the sky?
Rockefeller helped to build 'em, so did I
I paid my income tax today
A thousand planes to bomb Berlin
They'll all be paid for and I chipped in
That certainly makes me feel okay
Ten thousand more and that ain't hay
We must pay for this war somehow
Uncle Sam was worried but he isn't now
I paid my income tax today
I paid my income tax today
I never cared what Congress spent
But now I'll watch over ev'ry cent
Examine ev'ry bill they pay
They'll have to let me have my say
I wrote the Treasury to go slow
Careful, Mister Henry Junior, that's my dough
I paid my income tax
Now you've got all the facts
I know you'll pay your taxes too

HQ trivia did a question about this
Yeah. Propaganda. Check out what Gene says around 1:29. We check out the bills they pay. We'll have our say. Careful. that's our dough. Profound words that meant something back then...and should be just as profound now.
Amazing 1940s propaganda. Created 2 weeks after December 7th. We are even more indoctrinated today.
