[Verse 1 — Fiscal Responsibility] Spend with care, keep the budget sound, Remember where each dollar’s found. Live within our means today, Leave tomorrow room to make its way. [Verse 2 — Local Control] Bring decisions close to home, Where our neighbors’ needs are known. Let each town help chart its course, With the people as its guiding force. [Chorus] Five principles, one Oregon, From the mountain snow to the morning sun: Fiscal Responsibility, Local Control, Free Markets where ideas can grow, Limited Government, room to be, Personal Choice and Responsibility. [Verse 3 — Free Markets] Let supply and demand help set the price, Give a new idea a chance to rise. From the farm gate to the corner store, Let enterprise open another door. [Verse 4 — Limited Government] Do the common work we need, Leave us room to plant our seed. Keep its duties clear and small, And answer when the people call. [Chorus] Five principles, one Oregon, From the mountain snow to the morning sun: Fiscal Responsibility, Local Control, Free Markets where ideas can grow, Limited Government, room to be, Personal Choice and Responsibility. [Verse 5 — Personal Choice and Responsibility] Choose your path, protect your dreams, Build a life by your own means. Enjoy the harvest that you earn, Own your choices, live and learn. [Outro] Where the tall pines meet the sky, Let these five be our guide. With willing hands and liberty, We shape what Oregon can be.
