VERSE 2
Now the famous Bunker Hill
even though we lost it was quite a thrill
The rebel Colonel Prescott proved he was wise
Outnumbered and low on ammunition
as the British stormed his position
he said "Hold your fire till you see the whites of their eyes!"
Though the next few years were rough
General Washington's men proved they were tough
those hungry ragged boys would not be beat
One night they crossed the Delaware
Surprised the Hessians in their lair
And at Valley Forge just bundled up their feet
Now the shot heard round the world
Was the start of the revolution
The minutemen were ready, on the move
Take your blankets
Take your sons
Report to General Washington
We got our rights and now it's time to prove
VERSE 3
Well they showed such determination
that they won the admiration
of countries 'cross the sea like France and Spain
Who loaned the colonies ships and guns
and put the British on the run
and the Continental army on its feet again
Though we lost some battles too
the Americans swore they'd see it through
they kept up raiding parties hit and run
At Yorktown the British could not retreat
Bottled up by Washington and the French fleet
Cornwallis surrendered and finally we had won
HOORAY!
And the shot heard 'round the world
was the end of the Revolution
The Continental rebel(s) took the day
And the father of our country
beat the British there at Yorktown
brought freedom to you and me and the USA
MIGod bless America
LALet freedom ring
