Line 60: Line 60:


This is the night
This is the night
Light up a fire in the forge
Light up the fire in the forge
We're not the coins in the coffer of old King George
We're not the coins in the coffer of old King George
One if by land
One if by land
Two if they come by the sea
Two if they come by sea
We'll show 'em we are the true sons of liberty
We'll show 'em we are the true sons of liberty

Mount your horse 'cause it's time to tell the world
Mount your horse 'cause it's time to tell the world


The British are coming
The British are coming
The British are coming
The British are coming


Line 75: Line 77:
Tear up an old deerskin shirt
Tear up an old deerskin shirt
We know this shot will be heard all around the world
We know this shot will be heard all around the world
Punk-ass redcoats trying to run the show
Telling me what to do and where to go
Mount your horse 'cause it's time to tell the world
The British are coming
The British are coming
The British are coming


This is the destiny of all mankind
This is the destiny of all mankind
We will shake off these chains and shackles that bind
We will shake off these chains and shackles that bind
Come on, let's give them everything we have
Come on, let's give them everything we have
The British are coming
The British are coming
The British are coming
