Bill of Rights ('I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles)' Parody) - @MrBettsClass

Learn the Ten Amendments that make up the Bill of Rights and why many insisted on them prior to ratifying the Constitution.

New videos every Tuesday (sometimes Monday!)

It's a perfectly good plan. Why won't you anti-federalist just ratify this Constitution?

1. Well if I sign this, well I know you're gonna be, you're gonna be the one telling me how to pray,
And if I sign this, well I know you'll take the right of free speech, and press and petition away,
2. If I sign this, well I know that you will not ,that you will not be able to leave my guns alone,
3. And if I sign this, I know trust you I cannot, I just cannot trust you won't quarter in my home,

'Cause I don't trust your Constitution and I think it needs something more,
Like a Bill of Rights to stop the government from trying to take more,

4. If I sign this, yes I know you're gonna search, you're gonna seize me up without probable cause,
5. And if I sign this, you'll make me self-incriminate, or be deprived without the due process of laws,
6. When I sign this (when I sign this), well I know that any trial, that trial I'm in will carry on for years,
7. And if I sign, well I know to say goodbye, to say goodbye to any jury of my peers,

'Cause I don't trust your Constitution and I think it needs something more,
Like a Bill of Rights to stop the government from trying to take more,
Just sign it! Won't sign it!
Just sign it! Won't sign it 'til a Bill of Rights is added to this plan!
Just sign it! Won't sign it!
Just sign it! Won't sign! Only then I'll approve the Constitution.

8. If I sign this, well I know that you'll be cruel, and unusual if you have to punish me,
9. And if I sign this, well I know you're gonna say, you're gonna say you've listed all my liberties,
10. And when I sign this, well I know you're gonna think, you're gonna think that unclaimed rights belong to you,
So I won't sign this, and you'd better go create, go create something that protects us from you,
Go create something that protects us from you.

'Cause I don't trust your Constitution and I think it needs something more,
Like a Bill of Rights to stop the government from trying to take more,
Just sign it! Won't sign it!
Just sign it! Won't sign it 'til a Bill of Rights is added to this plan!
Just sign it! Won't sign it!
Just sign it! Won't sign! Only then I'll approve the Constitution.
