Use A− / A+ to adjust text sizeYou Could Have Been a Roosevelt
Out into the worldWith all the confidence and grace that luck instillsEach and every girlWith dresses pressed and faces fresh as daffodilsThis could be us but those were not the cards that we were dealtYou're doomed to be a KennedyWhen you could have been a RooseveltOut into the worldYou're sailing into life upon a glassy seaFlags and sails unfurledWhat must it be to be so young and whole and freeThis could be us but we're the grave at which our fathers kneltYou're doomed to be a KennedyWhen you could have been a RooseveltAnd we're gladWe can see in them versions of the life that we almost hadOut into the worldWhere certain things will always be beyond our scopeJust to be a girlWith Jean Nate and Pink Camay and Yardley SoapThis could be us but there was just a trust we never feltIt's hard to be a KennedyWhen you could have been a RooseveltIt's hard to be a KennedyWhen you could have been a Roosevelt
