Words that rhyme with President
President reads as a low-register anchor on the page; phonetically it's three-syllable, anchored on the mid /ษ/, ending where it ends in a nasal feeding into a stop. The lyric earns it by placement, not by selection. Songwriters reach for it as a plain-speech anchor. Perfect rhymes are not on the table, family rhymes come up empty, and the assonance pool has more matches than any verse will use. Let the assonance column shape the verse; the strict matches can punctuate it.

Why president rhymes the way it does
To understand why president rhymes the way it does, start with the vowel โ the mid /ษ/, written /ษ/ โ and the ending, which closes on the nasal-stop pairing. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 0 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 139, assonance 13,442, and consonance 2. That's a narrow strict column with a very deep slant well beneath it. Modern songwriting reads those slants as rhymes; the ear has been trained on them for a century. In the room with a guitar: write toward the strict rhyme first, then go back through and replace the obvious ones with the assonance matches that earned their place. President is a word that benefits from the second pass.
