==Lyrics==
Grandpa:
In the frozen winter of '76
In a place called Valley Forge
Came a time for a man of destiny
And his name was General George
'Twas a time for a man and he was a man for the time
Bower Family:
'Twas a time for a man and he was a man for the time
Grandpa:
In the Eighteen-hundred-sixty-one
A ship of state was sinkin'
Again came a man of destiny
A man by the name of Lincoln
'Twas a time for a man and he was a man for the time
Bower Family:
'Twas a time for a man and he was a man for the time
Grandpa:
In our land today
Is a man who's tried and true
He's what this country needs!
It's up to me and you!
All:
See that Grover Cleveland is the man this country needs!
Let's put it over with Grover!
Don't rock the boat! Give him your vote!
Let's keep our country in clover!
It's up to you! He'll follow through!
He'd make the White House shine like a lighthouse
Over our 38 states!
Eighteen-eighty-nine is the the time to fall in line
Behind one of destiny's greatest statesmen!
See that Grover Cleveland is the man this country needs!
Let's put it over with Grover!
Don't rock the boat! Give him your vote!
Give your vote to a man who's a leader of men
Let's put Grover over again!
Let's put it over with Grover!
Don't rock the boat! Give him your vote!
Give your vote to a man who's a leader of men
Let's put Grover over again!
Grandpa: (spoken) 
The Bower Family presents a glorification. "American Patriots in Living Pictures".
(sung)
Lexington and Bunker Hill
Were only weeks away
When Patrick Henry said
"he's gonna live and live today."
Alice: (spoken) 
"I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death."
Grandpa:
He stood prowling when he heard
His fatal sample shred
And then, with glory in his voice
Young Nathan Hale said-
Sidney: (spoken)
"My only regret is that I have but one life to give for my country."
Grandpa:
His words rang out across the land
And we recall with pride
A silversmith named Paul Revere
Who took that late night ride
Quinn: (spoken) 
"The British are coming. The British are coming. The British are coming."
Grandpa:
Christmas Day in '76
With courage blade and rare
The father of our country
Crossed the icy Delaware
'Twas a time for a man and he was a man for the time
(spoken)
And now ladies and gentlemen, our grand finale!
Let's put it over with Grover!
Don't rock the boat! Give him your vote!
Give your vote to a man who's a leader of men
Let's put Grover over again!
'It's the time for a man and Cleveland's a man for the time!
