LYRICS
Intro:
Shawtayee, ay
Shawtayee, ay ay
Shawtayee, ay ay ay

Chorus:
All the people who sent us here
have different backgrounds,
different stories, different beliefs.
We do not give up.
Nah, nah, nah, nah, not today
We do not get stuck in replay.

Verse:
No matter who we are
or where we come from
each of us is a part
of something greater
more consequential
than we individually are.

New laws will only pass
with Democrats and Republicans.
I believe we can, we must,
get the economy going again.

Bridge:
We do big things
from the days of our founding
big things
cause we dare to dream
big things
our destiny is our choice
we share common hopes, common creed

Chorus

#Shawtayee #BarackObama

[schmoyoho]

if these get sung at the UN, we can cure COVID and bring world peace ☮️

[nytrogaminggod]

My one hope is that Obama has seen this

[KZ-huuj]

Damn. If only we could go back to that simple time :’(

[slacktivism]

The fact that this song is also a meme today after 10 years. Shows you that history does repeat itself.

[Nightwing]

I'd listen to more speeches if they were all like this.

[FBaran-icsq]

can we all just sit back and appreciate how hard making that was, like its easier to make your own song from a speech, but replicating an actual song is so fucking impressive, GOOD WORK!!!

[uhh]

The President's agenda:

1.Sing to the shawties.
2.Make funny faces.
3.Provide affordable healthcare.

[veejayegrealy]

Revisiting this 10 years later... Brings me to tears of joy

[rh-zhww]

What if...shawty wasn’t like a melody in my head

[bofaboy]

Anyone reminiscing this in 2019?
Update:2021

[ksoltv]

I remember pushing my cart through the grocery store and the Iyaz song this is based on came on the PA. There I was singing the words to *this* version under my breath while getting my hamburger and salad stuff. Now the store's gone and I'm still singing this.

[micheal]

Classic! I'm back to replay this song. Like when I child

[salutations]

Whenever I hear the real song I always sing *these* lyrics in my head 🤣🤣🤣

[racoobi]

If Obama did this, both political parties would be on his side. LOL

[kcbehrens]

I saw this 3 years ago and loved it... and I found out it was the same people that did the Mark and JSE songs and I loved this even more.

[Jogita]

I remember watching this when it first came out. Fast forward to today, I had to write a speech for college about inspirational figures in which my first thought was Obama, then suddenly I just had "nah-nah nah nah not today" stuck in my head. Such a great classic to come back to.

[MikeyMyers]

A whole decade since this was released...I love this one a lot, thanks, Schmoyoho! <3

[rosadiamonds]

This randomly popped into my head today for some reason even though it's been years since I heard it. Good memories good vibes

[glowdust]

I miss the golden age of YouTube. Used to watch this everyday

[chocofloofer]

0:24 did anyone see that one guys eyes right there they were so close together XD
