Lyrics

I said to my Uncle Sam
“Old Man Taxes, here I am”
And he was glad to see me
Mister Small Fry, yes indeed
Lower brackets, that’s my speed
But he was glad to see me

Chorus:
I paid my income tax today
I never felt so proud before
To be right there with the millions more
Who paid their income tax today
I’m squared up with the U. S. A.
You see those bombers in the sky
Rockefeller helped to build them
So did I
I paid my income tax today
