leslie fish – jefferson and liberty lyrics
[verse 1]
the night of fire is yet to come
the tyrant shadow down the years
demands we kneel or take the gun
and go shed blood instead of our tears
[chorus]
so rejoice, columbia’s sons, rejoice!
to tyrants never bend the knee
but pledge your heart and hand and voice
to jefferson and liberty
[verse 2]
“every twenty years,” he said
the time is ten times overpast
to raise rebellion’s fiery head
and cast off tyranny’s sh+ll at last!
[chorus]
so rejoice, columbia’s sons, rejoice!
to tyrants never bend the knee
but pledge your heart and hand and voice
to jefferson and liberty
[verse 3]
no man is good nor wise enough
to rule another, or disown
the rights of every woman and man
to live and let live and be left alone
[chorus]
so rejoice, columbia’s sons, rejoice!
to tyrants never bend the knee
but pledge your heart and hand and voice
to jefferson and liberty
[verse 4]
the starry banner that did fly
o’er freedom’s bl++dy barricade
now flaps and fades in foreign skies
or palaces that empire made
[alternate chorus]
so arise, columbia’s sons, arise!
arise that you might yet be free
cast off the forces that made lies
of jefferson and liberty
[verse 5]
the world that once in hope did watch
a struggle for democracy
cries: “have columbia’s sons forgot
jefferson and liberty?”
[alternate chorus]
so arise, columbia’s sons, arise!
arise that you might yet be free
cast off the forces that made lies
of jefferson and liberty
[verse 6]
but we, the heirs of jefferson
like ancient sons of liberty
will bear in need the rebel’s gun
and never bow to tyranny
[alternate chorus]
so arise, columbia’s sons, arise!
arise that you might yet be free
cast off the forces that made lies
of jefferson and liberty
