A SONG, Composed at a town-meeting in Chester, Burlington
County, July, 1774.
Come join hand in hand all ye true, loyal souls, 
'Tis liberty calls, let's fill up our bowls, 
We'll toast all the lovers of Freedom's good cause; 
America's sons will support all our laws.
  Our firelocks are good;
  Let fair freedom ne'er yield
  We're always ready, 
  Steady, boys, steady, 
  By Jove we'll be free, 
  Or we'll die in the field.
. . . [3 verses follow with burden, "Our firelocks are good,
&c."]
