Ten Thousand Drums |
| Waiting, waiting for the red coats to come |
| When all I can here in my frozen ear |
| Is ten thousand drums, ten thousand drums |
| Johnny, Johnny don’t be afraid |
| We can whip those red coats |
| Sitting in the shade, sitting in the shade |
| We’ve got the best in all the rest in General Washington |
| And when we meet those red coats, watch those red coats run |
| Throwing down their drum, throwing down their drum |
| Listen, listen Johnny better get your gun |
| Cause we ain’t putting soldiers |
| Behind ten thousand drums, behind ten thousand drums |
| Running, running Johnny watch them run |
| We finally whipped that red coat |
| Finally stopped those drums, we stopped ten thousand drums |
| We’re the best of all the rest, us Yankee son of a guns |
| We can tell our mammy how we made them run |
| Throwing down their drum, throwing down their drum |
| We’re the best of all the rest, us Yankee son of a guns |
| We can tell our mammy how we made them run |
| Throwing down their drum, throwing down their drum |
| Ten thousand drums |
