AP US History Video Project
It's kind of hard to hear what is being said during the music video, so here are the lyrics:

America Takes Shape

Unit 4, America Takes Shape
The Corrupt Bargain let Clay become Secretary of State
JQA was leader of the country
A decision with which some didnt agree

The Black Tariff was up so high
The people wanted Jackson so Adams said bye
In 1828 there was a new trend
Old Hickory got rid of the Spoils System

Jacksons first cabinet was kinda shaky
They resigned, cause of a pretty lady
The Maysville Project no longer in view
With Jackson challenging Judicial Review

The Black Tariff was still too high
So S.C. threatened to nullify
Clay had to step in and help out
With a compromise delaying their bail out

Webster and Haynes debated for so long
And Jackson wanted the BUS to be gone
Nicholas Biddle caused a Panic
And the Trail of Tears impact was titanic

Texas Independence was on its way
But the Revolution caused a delay
Van Buren was Little Magician
But the Panic in 37 caused his submission

In 1840 Harrison was the gem
Reestablishing the 2 party system
Irish and Germans were part of the first wave
And Nativism was Americas crave

Women and children were cheap and expendable
While Elis parts were interchangeable
American inventions were a success
And communication was made easier with the Pony Express

The 2nd Great Awakening was a religious revival
Free Schools made their arrival
Reformers, women, and preachers had no fun
And haters called alcohol Demon Rum
Communes and Utopias were about Experimentation
And in 1844 Polk ruled the nation
Oregon was 54-40 or Fight
And the Mex-American war was fought in spite

The Mexican cession cost 15 million
And Zachary Taylor won the Election
Gold was found at Sutters Mill
So the 49s rushed through the hills

This is the best Unit 4 Rap in every way
So I think our group deserves an A
So Coach Reason what do ya think?
Mark that hundred down with red ink
