Chords for Rich Little - Ronald Reagan, Live Concert

_ Can you turn the rack?
[Fm] Anyway, _ [N] um_ Trains.
You've got trains and machine guns. _
[Gbm] Anyway, let me tell [Gb] you a little more about Ronald [Eb] Reagan.
The first time I was invited to the White House, this is true story,
[Gb] I was invited for a luncheon at the White House.
Why I got an invite I do not know, because it was for the president of Sri Lanka,
who is not a friend of [Abm] mine.
I didn't know a Sri Lanka from a student anchor.
_ But anyway, I was invited to the White House, and I was thrilled to be invited.
And I was really looking forward to meeting Ronald Reagan.
Well, I was supposed to be at the White House at 11 o'clock for a 12.30 luncheon,
and I was late.
[E] I got into a [Ab] car accident, and I didn't get to the White House until 10 after 12.
I was beside myself.
[Abm] And I can remember I was running down the corridor of the White House to the Lincoln Room,
where this [Ab] luncheon was going to be.
And as I approached the Lincoln Room, I saw President Reagan out in front of the room,
talking to reporters.
[Ab] And this was during the crisis in [Abm] Grenada, when Grenada was happening.
And, you know, the press were firing [Gb] questions at him.
And he was looking at [Db] his watch, and he wanted to get in [Ab] and have a sandwich.
He was starving.
And [Abm] he didn't want to be there, and he was looking at his watch,
and he was trying to answer these questions.
He sees me running down the corridor, and he says,
_ _ _ _ _ _ Rich, thank God you're here.
You know, you do me better than I do.
So [N] you take over this press conference. _ _ _
_ _ What?
He [Ab] said, you do me better than I do.
You finish this press conference.
I'm going for a [Gb] sandwich.
And then he split.
He split, leaving me with the press to [Abm] do Reagan.
And he's hiding around the door, watching and seeing what I'm going to do, right?
And the press are talking to me like they're talking to Ronald Reagan.
They're still firing questions at me, who is now Ronald Reagan.
And I'm standing [Ab] there going, _ _ _ does anybody have any [Gb] questions?
Yes, yes, yes. _ _ _
_ _ Does anybody [Abm] have any questions?
Any questions from anybody?
Yes, yes, you in the front, yes.
Mr.
President, [Db] Gord Atkinson from the Denver [Ab] Sandwich.
Yes, Mr.
Atkinson.
[Eb] What do you think of Grenada?
[Ab] _ I think it's the finest [Bb] song that Buddy Greco has ever recorded.
_ _ [Abm] _
_ Yes, you at the rash, over here.
Mr.
President, Janet Jay from Jackson 5.
Yes.
Why don't you drill for oil in Alaska?
There's a lot of it up there.
Well, that's because [Gb] the dipsticks are in [Ab] Washington. _ _ _ _
You [Gb] with the gold, over here.
Mr.
President, Bill Luxton from Liberty Bell.
Yes, [Ab] Mr.
Luxton.
With all the unrest in the Middle East, do you think we should send jets to Israel?
No.
What the hell would they do with a bunch of football players?
_ No, I think the jets should stay in New York and just play.
[Gbm] That's what they're good at.
I think they'd be [Abm] a total loss over there in Israel.
_ [Ab] Yes, the fellow with the gold, yes.
_ _ _ [Gb] Shelly Poppins from the Winchester 73.
Yes, Shelly.
Mr.
President, and_
[Ab] _ _ _ [Ab]
Yes, and the poor lost.
_ These poor suckers [Gb] never had a chance.
They should have put her in the U.S.
Yes, [Ab] you, you got it.
Bob Bentley of the Rockford Files.
Yes, Mr.
Bentley, [Gb] yes.
Mr.
President, at your age, do you still have sex? _
Yes, almost [Ab] every day.
Almost Monday, almost Tuesday.
Wednesday, almost Thursday, almost Friday.
Almost every day. _
_ _ Yes, that funny-looking fellow over there, [Abm] yes.
Sir Clifford Crap of the Dover Soap.
Yes, Mr.
Crap.
What are you going to do for the [Ab] sick, the weak, and the infirm? _
See to it that congressmen serve only one term.
[Gb] _ _ _
_ _ One more question.
Yes, you.
[Ab] Senator Reagan, Bria Little here from the Springfield Rifle.
When do you think a person is declared legally dead?
When the heart stops beating or the brain stops functioning?
[Gb] No, I would say when the [Ab] heart stops beating.
Good Lord, if we determined by the brain [Gb] stops functioning,
_ [Abm] we'd wipe out half the Senate.
_ And a few people in Port Augustus would go along with us.
_ [Gb] Yes, one more question.
Yes, here from the [Ab] Cheyenne Social Club.
[E] Yes.
Sir, do you think the government will [Abm] ever legalize marijuana?
[Ab] Well, I'm not sure about that, but I [Ab] think they're going to discuss it next week at a joint session. [Gb] Oh, okay.
_ [Ab] _ _ Oh, yes.
You with the rash.
_ [Gb] President Reagan, sir, this is Billy Joe McAllister from the Tallahassee Bridge.
Do you have any final words of wisdom?
Final words of wisdom?
Well, yes, as a matter of fact, I do.
Never raise a hand to your children,
because remember, they're the ones to pick out your nurse. _ _ _ _ _
