Yes, a monkey was the President, though maybe not the first
And there was peace and harmony throughout the universe.

More quotes by Tom T. Hall

Ain't but three things in this world that's worth a solitary dime,
But old dogs and children and watermelon wine.

I love winners when they cry,
Losers when they try.

I love coffee in a cup,
Little fuzzy pups,
Bourbon in a glass,
And grass.

"Faster Horses (The Cowboy and the Poet)", chorus (1975)

Whiskey's too rough
Champagne costs too much
Vodka puts my mouth in gear
This little refrain
Should help me explain
As a matter of fact I like beer
(He likes beer).
