Lyrics

It was a dream, dream I had last night
 I dreamed I went to the UN
 And set the whole nation right
 I dreamed of callin' old Castro
 To the morning flo'
 Looked him right in the eye and said, "Boy,
 You got to go!
 I'm tired of your foolishness
 And if you don't behave,
 I'm goin' grab you by your beard,
 Give you a Georgia shave!"
 It was a dream, a dream I had last night
 I dreamed I went to the UN
 And set the whole nation right
 Then I told old Khrushchev
 Sittin' there looking bad,
 "Get that junk outta Cuba
 'Fore you make me mad.
 Dig up them missile bases
 Take them planes and all
 Or I'll grab me a bat
 With your head for the ball!"
 It was a dream, dream I had last night
 I dreamed I went to the UN
 And set the whole nation right
 Then into Washington they call me
 An' I went
 Hadda be the guest
 Of the President
 He said, "Red, I'm glad to see you,
 So glad you come down here
 To help me run the Russians
 From the western hemisphere!"
 I said, "You can run the country
 I'm goin' to run the Senate
 Oughtta make a few changes
 With a few soul brothers in it.
 Ray Charles and Lightnin' Hopkins
 And a guy like Jimmy Reed
 Bo Diddley and Big Mabel
 Be all I need!"
 It was a dream, a dream I had last night
 I dreamed I went to the UN
 And set the whole nation right
