Theme song of the Associated Willkie-for-President Clubs of New Jersey
(Words by Ray Ghent, Eleanor and Donald J. Smith)
1.   Heigh-ho, heigh-ho,
It's back to work we go;
With Wendell Willkie leading us
The jobs will grow.
Heigh-ho, heigh-ho - heigh-ho,
We've all been feeling low,
But Willkie's hand will save the land,
Heigh-ho, heigh-ho.
2.   Heigh-ho, heigh-ho,
It's back to work we go;
With Willkie's plan the New Deal sham
Will have to go.
Heigh-ho, heigh-ho - heigh-ho,
The facts we want to know;
Wyn has no fear, he'll make things clear,
Heigh-ho, heigh-ho.
3.    Heigh-ho, heigh-ho,
It's back to work we go;
With confidence resored again
Defense will grow.
Heigh-ho, heigh-ho - heigh-ho,
We've all been worried so,
But Willkie's fight will us unite,
Heigh-ho, heigh-ho.
4.    Heigh-ho, heigh-ho,
It's back to work we go;
The people's voice expressed their choice,
The votes will show,
Heigh-ho, heigh-ho - heigh-ho,
We want the world to know
That Wendell Willkie is the man
We want. Heigh-ho!
(Paid for by the Associated Willkie-for-President Clubs of New Jersey)
