We'll sing another song
Then we've gotta move along
Far away my Sal
Please try to understand
Why I'm leavin' you Suzanne
Like the wind we're headed for the hills

(In 1776 men came from all of the 13 colonies to fight for General Washington. Many times the only things they had in common, were the songs they sang and the cause for which they fought.)

When brother died at Bunker hill
My mother said to me
Take your gun and join the men
Who fight for liberty
Here I sit a waitin'
For another British raid
I'll drink my barley whiskey
And pretend I'm not afraid

We'll sing another song
Then we've gotta move along
Far away my Sal
Please try to understand
Why I'm leavin' you Suzanne
Like the wind we're headed for the hills

No one ever told me
Where to call my home
When I was just a little lad
I began to roam
Then I heard the musket fire
Ringin' loud and clear
Saw the red coats up near Terrytown
Well I had to volunteer

We'll sing another song
Then we've gotta move along
Far away my Sal
Please try to understand
Why I'm leavin' you Suzanne
Like the wind we're headed for the hills

Once I had a little gal
We lived outside of town
Only had a one room shack
And it was fallin' down
But the land was all our own
It's where my son was born
Let's hurry up and end this war
It's time to plant my corn

We'll sing another song
Then we've gotta move along
Far away my Sal
Please try to understand
Why I'm leavin' you Suzanne
Like the wind we're headed for the hills

When this war is over
And our cause is won
More men who seek equality
Will learn from what we've done
We'll send those red coats packin'
To drink their bitter tea
And we will welcome all who share
Our longing to be free

We'll sing another song
Then we've gotta move along
Far away my Sal
Please try to understand
Why I'm leavin' you Suzanne
Like the wind, the wind, the wind we're headed for the hills
