''From whence shall we expect the approach of danger? Shall some transatlantic giant step the earth and crush us at a blow? Never! All the armies of Europe and Asia could not, by force, take a drink from the Ohio River or set a track on the Blue Ridge in the trial of a thousand years. If destruction be our lot, we ourselves must be its author and finisher. As a nation of free men, we will live forever, or die by suicide.(Abraham Lincoln, address to the Young Men's Lyceum of Springfield, IL, January, 1838)''There'll be no more counting the cars on the garden state parkwayNor waiting for the Fung Wah bus to carry me to who-knows-whereAnd when I stand tonight, 'neath the lights of the FenwayWill I not yell like hell for the glory of the Newark Bears?Because where I'm going to now, no one can ever hurt meWhere the well of human hatred is shallow and dryNo, I never wanted to change the world, but I'm looking for a new New JerseyBecause tramps like us, baby, we were born to dieI'm doing 70 on 17, 80 over 84And I never let the Meritt Parkway magnetize me no moreGive me a brutal Somerville summer,Give me a cruel New England winterGive me the great Pine BarrensSo I can see them turned into splintersAnd if I come in on a donkey, let me go out on a gurneyI want to realize too late I never should have left New JerseyI sense the enemy, they're rustling around in the treesI thought I had gotten away but the followed me to 02143Woe, oh woe is me, no one knows the trouble I seeWhen they hang Jeff Davis from a sourapple tree, I'll sit beneath the leaves and weepLetras de cancionesNone of us shall be saved, every man will be a slaveFor John Brown's body lies a'mouldring in the grave and there's rumbling down in the cavesSo if it's time for choosing sides, and to show this dirty city how we do the Jersey SlideAnd if it deserves a better class of criminal,Then I'm'a give it to them tonightSo we'll rally around the flag, rally around the flagRally around the flag, boys, rally once again,Shouting the Battle Cry of FreedomRally around the flag, rally around the flagGlory, glory, Hallelujah, His truth is marching on From Letras Mania
