Slow Jam the News (Live) - Barack Obama/Jimmy Fallon

Hit me eight times

It's been an honor and a privlidge to serve as your president

Over the past eight years

When I first took office

Our nation was facing one of the worst recessions in its history

Since then we've added more than 14 million new jobs

And lowered the unemployment rate to under 5

Through the actions of my administration

We were able to stimulate the economy

And get our country back on track

Oooh yeah

President Obama stimulating long term growth in both the public

And the private sector

In 2008 the country wasn't feeling in the mood

It was too tired stressed said it had a headache

Barack lit some candles and got some silky satin sheets

Silky satin sheets now

He told the American people yes we can

Yes we can it's alright

He created tons of jobs for you and me

He's got one more left for Hillary

As president I'm proud of the many progressive steps

Our country has taken in recent years

Both socially and environmentally

The united states has been a leader in developing clean energy

To ensure the health of our planet for future generations

Thanks to the affordable care act

An additional 20 million Americans now have access to quality health care

And same sex couples across the country now have a constitutional right to marry

In short climate change is real health care is affordable and love is love

Mm mm mmm

Commander and preach

You gotta listen to my man bar eezus

He's accomplished a lot in eight years

Even when congress tried to block him

He found a way in through the back door

When republicans gave him lemons

He made so much lemonade beyonce started calling him

Barack-y with the good hair

Barack-y with the good hair

His first two terms ended in such a hurry

Wish he could go for three like my man steph curry

Now now there will be no third term I can't stay forever

Besides daddy's got a Hawaiian vacation booked in about

223 days but who's counting

That being said the American people faced an important decision this fall

The entire world is watching and they look to for stability and leadership

Now I know some of the presidential candidates have been

Critical of my foreign policy

I don't want to name any names he's talking about Donald trump

But I believe it is of the upmost importance to work along

Side of the world leaders

That's why I signed Iran nuclear deal

That's why we reopened diplomatic ties with Cuba

And that's why I negotiated the new trade deal called the

Trans pacific partnership the TPP

Now hold on there prez dispenser

Are you saying you're down with TPP

Yeah you know me

Look jimmy the TPP allows American businesses to sell their products

Both at home and abroad

The more we sell abroad the more higher paying jobs we provide here at home

It's that simple

So so what you're is this trade deal will help put every day

Americans back to work work work work work

Put it back to work work work work work

He put it back to work work work work work

Now mr president since you're here I gotta ask

Have you been watching all the election covers this week about

Donald trump

No but I have been watching my new favorite show

Orange is not the new black

Woah woah woah

I'ma need you to netflix and chill

I get it if you're a little wound up after all this time

I mean I can't imagine what it'd be like to do

The same job for eight straight years

Jimmy you probably never will

Does Obama care cover burns

America's best days are still yet to come

Thank you Mr president for all that you've done

This country's on track and that is a fact

Once you go Barack you will never go back

Thank you for leading the red white and the blue

That is how we slow jam the news

Oh yeah
