Story Behind the Song
An examination fo the social and economic forces behind the Revolutionary War, set to a hard-rock beat
Lyrics
Theres a greedy man who lives across the water
Thinks he owns the whole damn world
But he dont own me or my girl
Ever since his little French and Indian battle
Hes been playing us for babies or a herd of dumb cattle
Well baby he can sit and watch his empire unravel
Im gonna fight that man
Punch and kick him all I can
Cause hes King George Three
And hes taxing me for tea
Gonna raise my musket high
Til I make the Redcoats cry
Cause its overdue
And I want my own country, too
So I phone my friends Patrick Henry and John Adams
Everyone but Benedict
I dont trust that derelict
And we go pick up another dude named Thomas
Tom gets Washington, and he gives us a promise
Says he gonna bite and scream til he ruins Cornwallis
We will be equal men
Well be American
Not like King George Three
Who seems to think hes royalty
Gonna raise our muskets high
Til we make the Redcoats cry
Cause its overdue
And I want my own country, too
Yes, its overdue
And I want my own country, too
Baby, me and you
Gonna get our own country, too
Every black and Jew
Will be welcome in it, too
Theyll be slaves, its true
But one thing at a time
We wont let girls vote
But thats because theyre not as smart
If the injuns cry
Well let them build casinos
Every homeless man will be lying in the streets of gold
