Ton : GEnglish
Couplet
In GApril of G71775
CThis great nation started coming Gto life.
Old King George didn't Emlike it one bit
So Amhe proceeded to throw Dhim a royal fit.
GHe told his generals: Better G7 get 'em back in line!
CMake 'em pay my taxes now America Gis mine!
Stop that independence talk Embefore it gets around
Or it's Amgonna be hard to Dhold them Grebels down!
Couplet
Well the GKing was talking 'bout G7the men like Paul Revere
And the CMinutemen who held their dream of Gindependence dear.
They kept their eyes on the British Emthey watched them day and night
AmThey knew very soon they'd get their Dchance to stand and fight.
Yes they knew that the British would G7be moving any hour
So Cthey arranged a signal in the Northend Gchurch tower.
Paul was watching when the Emtower showed a light
And he Amstarted on his Dmidnight Gride.
Couplet
He Cjumped on his Ghorse hooves started a humming
He Cscreamed out his Gwarning: Redcoats are comin'!
C Better get your guns and Emyour fighting breeches on
They're Amcomin' and they're eight Dhundred strong.
Next Gmorning at Concord G7and Lexington town
The Cspirit of freedom turned the Redcoats Garound.
When we praise the men who made that Emmighty nation we have here
Then Amlet's remember DPaul GRevere Emyes Amlet's remember Paul DRevere. G
Couplet
I Gguarantee you somethin' and I wanna tell you all
That we never would been here if it hadn't been for Paul.
Yes Sir I surely doubt us ever bein' here
If it hadn't been for that man on that horse named Mr. Revere
