Ten Thousand Drums

[Verse 1]
Waiting, waiting, for the Red Coats to come
But all I hear in my frozen ears is ten thousand drums
Ten thousand drums

[Verse 2]
Johnny, Johnny, don't be afraid
We can whip those Red Coats setting in the shade
Setting in the shade

[Chorus]
We've got the best of all the rest in General Washington
And when we meet those Red Coats, watch them Red Coats run
Throwing down their drums
Throwing down their drums

[Verse 3]
Listen, listen, Johnny better get your gun
'Cause there ain't wooden soldiers behind ten thousand drums
Behind ten thousand drums

[Verse 4]
Running, running, Johnny watch them run
We finally whip those Red Coats, finally stop those drums
We stopped ten thousand drums

[Chorus]
We're the best of all the rest us Yankee son-of-a-guns
We can tell our mammy's how we made them run
Throwing down their drums
Throwing down their drums
We're the best of all the rest us Yankee son-of-a-guns
We can tell our mammy's how we made them run
Throwing down their drums
Throwing down their drums
Ten thousand drums
