Oh who has heard the great commotion, motion, motion
All the country through?
It is the ball a-rolling on
For Tippecanoe and Tyler too
And with him we'll beat Little Van, Van
Van is a used-up man
And with him we’ll beat Little Van

Sure, let 'em talk about hard cider (cider, cider)
And log cabins too
'T’will only help to speed the ball
For Tippecanoe and Tyler too
And with him we'll beat Little Van, Van
Van is a used-up man
And with him we'll beat Little Van

Like the rush of mighty waters (waters, waters)
Onward it will go
And of course we'll bring you through
For Tippecanoe and Tyler too
And with him we'll beat Little Van, Van
Van is a used-up man
And with him we'll beat Little Van
