Lyrics[]
If you need company
Like a partner or a friend
The manifest excellency
Will give you time to spend
But if you get too crowded
Your feelings will face gloom
Unless you give each other
Adequate elbow room
People became crowded
Early in America
Despite all the settlers
It was always East or Bust
But when the president
Was Thomas Jefferson
He went to a French General
Known as Napoleon
In the year 1803
We got the Louisiana Territory
Since that very day
The crowd slowly spread away
Then in the 1810s
Lewis and Clark set off
With the help of Sacajwea
They went from loft to loft
All their very motions
Ended at the Pacific Ocean
What happened as the years passed
This question many people ask
West territory came to the US
And what it took the settlers could care less
(Speaking): Such events that made this possible were the Manifest Destiny, the Invention of the Railroad, the Gold Rush and other events. Thank you and goodbye for now.
