Redcoat

There's a Redcoat breathing down our necks
A handle on our lives
With a two way secret calling code
Against our fathers' knives
Gonna run, gonna hide, goin' underground
We're gonna try and take this man
We're slowing down.

On a Sugar Loaf not far from here
Firelight burning bright
With a horse that carries a Redcoat fear
A will to make us fight
Gonna run, gonna hide, goin' underground
Gonna try and take this man
We're slowing down and he's goin' down...

All we ever wanted
Was a free and easy life
In the country of our ancestors
In a land free of strife
But the Redcoat came
And he walked our earth
And he showed us no respect
Treated us like dirt

Gonna run, gonna hide, goin' underground
Gonna hunt and put this man
Into the ground he's goin' down...

Redcoat is running scared
We're fighting for our lives
His horse threw his Redcoat fear
We sharpen up our knives
He loads his gun we come up behind
He's too slow to run or keep his musket primed
He aims his gun we paint our knives
With the blood of Redcoat lives
