AP US History Song!

Here is a song that Jherrica, Jeremy and Cory performed in class

Lyrics:
Come Now Pay me, with the Townsend acts

The soldiers live in my house, with the quartering act

I was stomped by the stamp act, on documents
They taxed the tea we drunk
without rep,
without rep.
representation




So in retaliation we held congress

In was kind of a miss

The intolerable acts were not repealed

Later they were enforced by lord north

We tarred and feathered the tax collectors

The second congress was
Not a miss
Not miss

So we wrote our list of grievances
To King George
(you mean Georgia?)

He called us traders to his kingdom

T. Jefferson wrote the declaration

It was voted on by the congress

With a unanimous vote we
Sealed the deal
Sealed the deal
Sealed the deal




George Washington became a general
Of the continental
Of the continental



ROBOT
Hey gurl, Washington called me up,
I gotta fight for my country,
I be seeing you when I get beck
here we go
REMIX




The battle was won at Ticonderoga
The Fort held armaments for battle

(Pause)

Benedict Arnold was a General
Later he felt cheated and left our forces
Just like the tories he chose Britain
America declared him as a traitor
As a traitor
As a traitor


Yo yo that man was trippin
But do you know, I think its about time to go and win this war!
Are you ready
REMIX

Chorus:
Yo shawty I want my freedom
You know im gonna fight for my freedom
I'll die in battle just for my freedom
Cuz you know we don't give a (door bell) cuz it's our freedom

June 17, the year 75
Bunker Hill was the objective of the time

It was an artillery with loads of guns
The spoils of the victor got advantages

The British may have won the artillery
But for the US it was a moral victory




At the same time, there was a campaign
The attempted invasion of Canada's
Domain
The US Fought and won St. Johns
The fort was essential to beating the brit-ton

From St. John's we marched to Quebec
Pressing to win this war with an attack

The British cracked down on American forces
And the US troops retreated like horses

Yo shawty I want my freedom
You know im gonna fight for my freedom
I'll die in battle just for my freedom
Cuz you know we don't give a (door bell) cuz it's our freedom


Washington's army retreated to Valley Forge
Only to be frozen by the winter

Now we be talking about some common sense
Written by Thomas Paine to make a difference

The Battle of Saratoga became disputed land
Where America soon gained the upper hand

Now we go to Yorktown when the battle ends
The US won with the help the of our French

We surrounded the British by land and sea
Forcing them to surrender down on one knee

The war was over with the treaty of Versailles
Leaving the free Americans with open eyes

The Americans now had the choice
To let it be heard that they had a voice

Council of teri for life!!!
Class of the 2011
