Vote for the Levy - Words to Campaign Song

* Note - I, Karen Kelly, daughter of Lois Brown Dale (now Angel Lois) wrote words for the first Clermont Senior Citizens' campaign song that was played on cassette players with  speakers (bought at Radio Shack) then put on transportation vehicles and cars. This song was also sung at events. (I still have a tape around here - somewhere). Found it - but it says Issue 4! Will listen and figure out if the words below are for another campaign. (It took 3 times to get the levy passed!) Thinking now that I may have learned something about songwriting from my Daddy - who was a songwriter - Allied Music Company - 4th & Broadway, Cincinnati, Ohio.
 



Sing to the tune of "Waiting for the Robert E. Lee"
 
Vote for the Levy!
 
Vote for the Levy,
I said, Vote for the Levy,
