Watch Randy Newman Perform “Mr. President (Have Pity On The Working Man)” On Fallon
National treasure Randy Newman was on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon last night to perform his still-applicable 1974 Good Old Boys track “Mr. President (Have Pity On The Working Man).” “This is a song I wrote back in the Pleistocene era. But it’s become relevant again” is how he introduced it.
It’s his second time on the late-night talk show circuit since the pandemic began. Last month, he went on Colbert to do his coronavirus song “Stay Away.”
Watch his performance of “Mr. President” below.
