Hail to the Minutemen the minutemen, the minutemen,
hail to the minutemen that were born on a crisp September morn;
O’ hear ye O’ Hear ye!The powder house was drained by that scurvy loyalists lobster…Gage, I think Is his name? Valiant Lads made haste gathering haversacks and ramrods the same.
As rumors spoken, boasted they were ready in just 15. Boys as young as school yard whips muster most gallantly, not one of them chicken hearted as they marched to the beat of new reveille.
Hail to the minutemen, the minutemen, the minutemen!
Hail to the minutemen with swift action and continuity;
With impatient readiness, Vengeance was upon thee.They gathered in the townships In order to organize an action to secretly seize;
“This most wicked system that implemented intolerable acts to destroy our liberties!“Hail to the minutemen, the minutemen, the minutemen, hail to the minutemen!
That were most incumbent that day,
Josephine Tresham
That pompous King George put restrictions into play.
The minutemen were steady with willingness to perish and to draw blood of the tories,
for the minutemen prevailed with self upheld and nor in vain.
“An Appeal to the Heavens!” As they sang with such sanctified glory.
O I’m a good old rebel, now that’s just what I am. For this “fair land of freedom” I do not care at all. I’m glad I fit against it, I only wish we’d won, And I don’t want no pardon for anything I done.
I can’t get excited about the Yankee revolution or Declaration of Independence tripe.
I think it’s point is just to inspire revolutionary thinking against tyranny. A lesson that has been learned and relearned throughout history.
