Peanut in the Wind- 4

From peanut fields in Plains- you rose, A boy with humble start The Navy called- and you answered, With patriotic heart, Georgia chose you as governor, A southern statesman true, Your honest smile and farmer's hands, Showed what hard work can do And it seems to me you lived your life- Like a peanut in the wind, Always knowing how to help out- When the need set in, From Plains to Pennsylvania Ave- Your impact never hid, Your farm boy charm endured far past- Your presidency did, The Oval Office proved a test- With crises day and night, Iran held hostages- while at home Inflation reached new heights, You tapped Paul Volcker for the Fed- To tame the dollar's fall, And signed the Alaska lands act- Preserving nature for all, And it seems to me you lived your life- Like a peanut in the wind, Always knowing how to help out- When the need set in, From Plains to Pennsylvania Ave- Your impact never hid, Your farm boy charm endured far past- Your presidency did, After your presidency- Your greatest work just begun, With hammer and nail for Habitat- You built homes one by one, HelloJimmy C- Still teaching Sunday school with care, Your love for Rosalynn endures-While peace prizes declare, Your tireless fight 'gainst Guinea worm- A legacy so rare, And it seems to me you lived your life- Like a peanut in the wind, Always knowing how to help out- When the need set in, From Plains to Pennsylvania Ave- Your impact never hid, Your farm boy charm endured far past- Your presidency did, (OUTRO) Your farm boy charm endured far past…..Your presidency did
