A SONG.  TO THE TUNE OF HEARTS OF OAK.
Come join hand in hand, brave Americans all,
And rouse your bold hearts at fair Liberty's call;
No tyrannous acts shall suppress your just claim
Or stain with dishonor America's name.
In freedom we're born, and in freedom we'll live,
Our purses are ready
Steady, friends, steady,
Not as slaves, but as freemen our money we'll give.
. . . [7 Verses with burden "In freedom we're born, &c."]
