Ten Thousand Drums

(albüm: Heart Over Mind - 1962)

Waiting waiting for the redcoats to come
But all I hear in my frozen ears is ten thousand drums
Ten thousand drums

Johnny, Johnny, don't be afraid
We can whip those redcoats setting in the shade
Setting in the shade

We've got the best of all the rest of General Washington
And when we meet those redcoats watch them redcoats run
Going down their drum, going down their drum

Listen, listen, Johnny, better get your gun
Cause there ain't putting soldiers behind ten thousand drums
Behind ten thousand drums

Running, running, Johnny, watch them run
We finally whip those redcoats finally stop those drums
We stop ten thousand drums

We're the best of all the rest such Yankee son of a gun
We can tell our mommies how we made them run going down their drum
Going down their drum, going down their drum
Ten thousand drums, ten thousand drums...
