Arm the Citizenry

Grab your guns, your musket balls, tell your sons, their duty calls
Till' the army comes around, you tell King George we'll stand our ground

Off to war, self government ain't free
Lock your doors, and arm the citizenry

Minutemen, that's what they call, men who're always on the ball
Simple farmers who have the gaul, to force a system overhaul

Off to war, self government ain't free
Lock your doors, and arm the citizenry

When the soldiers, break your door, they won't care if you're rich or poor
They have soldiers, we have more, it's the British we abhore

Off to war, self government ain't free
Lock your doors, and arm the citizenry

Hide away deep in the woods, hunt the prey, like Robin Hood
'Till the day, the red coats leave, all their lives we will bereave

Off to war, self government ain't free
Lock your doors, and arm the citizenry

We know freedom has a price, we're prepared to roll the dice
Not a king, nor a Khan, a president's who we'll bet on

Off to war, self government ain't free
Lock your doors, and arm the citizenry

Now's the time we can't ignore, off tyranny we have swore
It's a crime to fight a war, but worse to stay when you're called for

Off to war, self government ain't free
Lock your doors, and arm the citizenry
Off to war, self government ain't free
So, arm the citizenry
