2. Vote with Love
Music & Lyrics by Melanie DeMore @2016 MeMaMusic

And cast your vote
PUT one foot in front of the other

It won’t take long, to get it done (Chorus)
Bring all your friends, and family too
Cast your vote EeeRLY, I will too (Chorus x2)

Goin' to the ballot box, we're
Gonna vote ea-er-early

For our country's future
MAking Our VOI CES HEARD. (Hold caps for 2 beats)
4. When Will You VOTE
Tune: The Addams Family
Chorus:
When will you VOTE (snap-snap) (x2)
When will you VOTE,
when will you VOTE,

Request a mail-in ballot
and put it in the drop-box.

It’s time to make your plan (chorus)
Show up November third
And make your voice be heard.
Or do it earlier.
It’s time to make your plan (chorus)

Help freedom to ring.

Stand out. (clap-clap)
Let’s get the VOTE out.

United we are strong.
Standing with each other.
Won’t you come along?
Show up. (clap-clap)
Tell friends. (clap-clap)
Let’s get the VOTE out.
We can work together.
Get out and vote!
Get out and vote!
Get out and VOTE!
7. Make a Plan
To the tune of Gilligan’s Island
Just sit right back and make a plan,
A plan for when you’ll vote.
In person, early or mail-in,
Make yourself a note. (X2)
Make sure that you are registered.
It’s easy to find out.
And help your fam’ly and your friends
To show up and turn out. (x2)
November third is the date
For us to raise our voice.
When the many cast their votes,
It’s how we make our choice. (x2)
So, sit right back and make a plan,
A plan for when you’ll vote.
In person, early or mail-in,
Make yourself a note. (X2)
8. We Wish You a Fair Election
To the tune of “We Wish You a Merry Christmas”
We wish you a fair election
We wish you a fair election
We wish you a fair election
And a safe e-lec-tion day! (REPEAT)
Good tidings we bring, to all of you here
Encourage de-moc-racy By voting today!
We wish you a fair election ...
We won’t go until you’ve voted (3x)
You can do so right here!
We wish you a fair election ...
