| As I dreamed out one evening
|
| By a river of discontent
|
| I bumped straight into old Tom Paine
|
| As running down the road he went
|
| He said, «I can’t stop now, child
|
| King George is after me
|
| He’d have a rope around my throat
|
| And hang me from the Liberty Tree»
|
| Well I will dance to Tom Paine’s bones
|
| Dance to Tom Paine’s bones
|
| Dance in the oldest boots I own
|
| To the rhythm of Tom Paine’s bones
|
| I will dance to Tom Paine’s bones
|
| Dance to Tom Paine’s bones
|
| Dance in the oldest boots I own
|
| To the rhythm of Tom Paine’s bones
|
| «Well I only spoke of freedom
|
| Justice for everyone
|
| Ever since the very first word I spoke
|
| I’ve been looking down the barrel of a gun
|
| Well they say I preached revolution
|
| Let me say in my defence
|
| All I ever did wherever I went
|
| Was talk a lot of common sense»
|
| I will dance to Tom Paine’s bones
|
| Dance to Tom Paine’s bones
|
| Dance in the oldest boots I own
|
| To the rhythm of Tom Paine’s bones
|
| I will dance to Tom Paine’s bones
|
| Dance to Tom Paine’s bones
|
| Dance in the oldest boots I own
|
| To the rhythm of Tom Paine’s bones
|
| Old Tom Paine he ran so fast
|
| That he left me standing still
|
| There I was, a piece of paper in my hand
|
| Standing at the top of the hill
|
| It said, «This is the Age Of Reason
|
| These are The Rights Of Man
|
| Kick off religion and monarchy»
|
| It was written in Tom Paine’s plan
|
| And I will dance to Tom Paine’s bones
|
| Dance to Tom Paine’s bones
|
| Dance in the oldest boots I own
|
| To the rhythm of Tom Paine’s bones
|
| I will dance to Tom Paine’s bones
|
| Dance to Tom Paine’s bones
|
| Dance in the oldest boots I own
|
| To the rhythm of Tom Paine’s bones
|
| Old Tom Paine, there he lies
|
| Nobody laughs and nobody cries
|
| And where he goes and how he fares
|
| Nobody knows, nobody cares
|
| So I will dance to Tom Paine’s bones
|
| Dance to Tom Paine’s bones
|
| Dance in the oldest boots I own
|
| To the rhythm of Tom Paine’s bones
|
| I will dance to Tom Paine’s bones
|
| Dance to Tom Paine’s bones
|
| Dance in the oldest boots I own
|
| To the rhythm of Tom Paine’s bones
|
| I will dance to Tom Paine’s bones
|
| Dance to Tom Paine’s bones
|
| Dance in the oldest boots I own
|
| To the rhythm of Tom Paine’s bones
|
| I will dance to Tom Paine’s bones
|
| Dance to Tom Paine’s bones
|
| Dance in the oldest boots I own
|
| To the rhythm of Tom Paine’s bones
|
| To the rhythm of Tom Paine’s bones
|
| To the rhythm of Tom Paine’s bones |
