Nothing cures a Depression better than a New Deal and Bruno Mars! Learn the major programs of Franklin Delano Roosevelt's New Deal!

New videos every Tuesday!

(Franklin, Delano, Delano)
This Great Depression
Has grown worse, not lessened,
We want a new President,
'Cause Hoover's not listening,
We're jobless, bankrupt,
Living parks in the city,
I ate a boot for dinner last night,
Won't someone give me some pity?

Got a job? (New Deal) NRA gonna get you paid, (Franklin, Delano, Delano)
Need a job? (New Deal) Try the CCC or PWA,
You a bank? (New Deal) Glass-Steagall says you cannot trade,
You farm? (New Deal) Call the AAA, get a subsidy,

Do you want a New Deal, do you? (Yeah)
Do you want a New Deal, do you? (Yeah)
Do you want a New Deal, do you? (Yeah)
'Cause Roosevelt's gonna give it to you!
'Cause Franklin, he's gonna give it to you!
'Cause FDR's gonna give it to you!
Nothing to fear but fear itself,
'Cause Roosevelt's got the watch! (Franklin, Delano, Delano)
(New Deal) 'Cause Roosevelt's got the watch
(New Deal) 'Cause Roosevelt's got the watch
'Cause Roosevelt's got the watch x 3
Hey-hey-hey-ow

"Stop! You can't do it!"
Said the courts but there's a sequel to it,
Second New Deal in '34
Economy secure,
3 million Americans employed by the WPA
Building and painting and writing what you got to say

You old? (New Deal) With Social Security retire man, (Franklin, Delano, Delano)
You fired? (New Deal) We got an unemployment plan,
Union? (New Deal) Now you can collective bargain,
You mad? (New Deal) 'Cause the government moved the invisible hand?

Chorus
(Franklin, Delano, Delano)
Still depressed? Let me tell you something,
New Deal helps you out, New Deal helps you out x 4
So let's enact it,
If the Court says no, well I'll stack it,
That, Congress ain't buying,
Can't fault a brother for trying,
The Depression ain't over,
But it gets us so much closer,
We've nothing to fear but fear itself,
'Cause Roosevelt's got the watch!
(New Deal) 'Cause Roosevelt's got the watch
(New Deal) 'Cause Roosevelt's got the watch
'Cause Roosevelt's got the watch x 3
Hey-hey-hey!

Your videos make me laugh, but they're also very helpful. Thank you! It really helps me understand.

I am so in love with this! Two of my classes that I have been struggling with all year have fallen in love with this song! They are requesting it and other videos that are not in our curriculum!

Love,
A Texas History Teacher who loves music! <3

Mr. Betts, I love your songs! I use them for 7th graders and it raises the bar! Every single one of your videos is clearly made with passion and love for our students! Thank you Mr. Betts! I am sending you a ghost hug, you can't see it but you know it's there!
