We’ll march to Lexington, then Concord
‘Cause those “patriots” are stockpiling their weapons there we’ve heard
We’ve had enough of traitors, of this treason
Tonight we’re capturing those rebel scum
I’m Paul Revere, going to Lexington
Gotta warn the “Regulars” are coming for Samuel Adams
And Hancock. Two lanterns mean the come by sea
So I ride hard on my horsey Black Beauty
April 19th, ‘75
As the dawn is breaking we’re looking alive
I’m Captain John Parker, these are minutemen
Standing tall, unafraid, on the Common
I’ve had it with these militias
Acting like they don’t have a royal ruler
You better lay your arms down, you villians, rebels
Wait, who shot? You or us? Fire at will!
Shot heard round the world* And it’s on now! Lexington and Concord
Shot heard round the world* And it’s on now! Lexington and Concord
Shot heard round the world* And it’s on now! Lexington and Concord
Shot heard round the world* And it’s on now! Lexington and Concord
Eight minutemen dead
Killed by guns and bayonets
And the rest of us fled
Brits continue marching ahead
We came to Concord
For the weapons they have stored
Most of it has moved
So we’re headed back to Boston
Militia men from all over Massachusetts
Gathering at the North Bridge for the British
As the lobsterbacks retreat to Boston
We be shooting them, just look at them run
How are colonists straight kicking our bums?
More are waiting for us back in Lexington
Everywhere we turning they’re shooting at us
They got us on the run, hurry to Boston!
Shot heard round the world* And it’s on now! Lexington and Concord
Shot heard round the world* And it’s on now! Lexington and Concord
Shot heard round the world* And it’s on now! Lexington and Concord
Shot heard round the world* And it’s on now! Lexington and Concord
Boston, Mass
Says tell his majesty
We’ve had it with his third-rate monarchy
And we mean business
