James Newton Howard, ’04

Voting

Voting is our given right,
which men have died to keep.
Voting shows our peoples might,
so our country won’t get into deep.

But there are those who never vote,
and constantly seem to complain.
Patriotism they don’t promote,
and their rights they choose to abstain.

Every vote does really count,
to let our officials know.
For their actions they must account,
or their ratings will never grow.

So come this election time,
go cast your vote with pride.
Voting doesn’t cost a dime,
plus the out come you help decide.
