Lyrics:
Some continental soldier's on a bivouac Were playin' stud poker in a mountain shack But every vigilante through down his hands When the Captain of the guard gave a sharp command [Chorus:] Oh Jimmy get your fiddle out, rosin' up your bow Johnny clean your banjo up, we're gonna have a show Billy pass the jug around to Corporal Mccoy We're gonna have a tune called Soldier's Joy [Interlude:] The girls in Boston are dancin' tonight The gall-durn redcoats are holdin' 'em tight When we get there, we'll show 'em how But that ain't a doin' us no good now [Repeat chorus] There goes General Washington, He's got his horse in a sweeping run The barefoot boys are beggin' to fight We're gonna cross the Delaware River tonight [Repeat chorus] Old Burgoyne in the wilderness Got his army in an awful mess Farmers got mad at the British an the Huns And they captured ten-thousand of the Son-of-a-guns [Repeat chorus] John Paul Jones in an old tin can Scoured the ocean like a fightin' man The British said Paul are you ready to strike And Paul said I'm just beginning to fight [Repeat chorus]
