"Now, here's to Wendell Willkie, or PAL we call him WEN;
We've picked him for OUR PRESIDENT, from a bunch of brilliant men.
Smart, sincere, keen, diplomatic; for GOD, for HOME, for PEACE, for U.S.A.
We'll win with Wendell L. Willkie upon ELECTION DAY.
We'll elect YOU, Wendell Willkie, we'll Elect YOU, Wendell L.
From the State of Indiana, Native Son, we wish you well,

All the OLD FOLKS, YOUNG FOLKS, POOR FOLKS, wish YOU well;
You're going to be our PRESIDENT, we'll elect YOU, WENDELL L."
