a young man who planted trees / was conveniently named 'Johnny Appleseed' / Johnny planted trees in the ground / George Washington got an axe / he chopped them down / George said "these aren't cherry trees / I've got to tell the truth / I just need some wood / I've got a missing tooth" / cause it's one if my land / and it's two if by sea / and it's three if Ben Franklin tied a kite to Alan Keyes / give me liberty or give me death! / if the two, i do prefer liberty / give me liberty or give me death! / if those are the only two options, i'll choose liberty / John Adams tossed a rag / to Betsy Ross who made a flag / of stars and bars, hey, don't you know / "all systems go" / Hamilton was pretty sure / of the blanks that Aaron Burr / had in his musket / and he cussed it / Davy Crockett: Fashion Rustic / in Kittyhawk, at the flight / Orville & Wilbur, Brothers Wright / they took off in spite / of the air traffic controllers who were on strike / give me liberty or give me death! / if i have a vote, i'm choosing liberty / give me liberty or give me death! / give me death, give me death, give me sweet, delicious death / one time: for your mind / two times: for your soul / three times: for the children / four times: this is getting old / give me liberty or give me death! / oh, madam Frayer / i do declare / you've got a gummy bear in your underwear / i said, give me liberty or give me death! / oh give me death, give me death / give me liberty or give me death! / of the two, i do prefer liberty
