Tom Paine's Bones

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 right now, child, King George is after me
 He'd have a rope around my throat
 And hang me on the Liberty Tree" But 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 only talked about freedom
 And justice for everyone
 But since the very first word I spoke
 I've been looking down the barrel of a gun
 They say I preached revolution
 Let me say in my defence
 That all I did wherever I went
 Was to talk a lot of common sense" Old Tom Paine he ran so fast
 He left me standing still
 And 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 there in Tom Paine's plan Old Tom Paine, there he lies
 Nobody laughs and nobody cries
 Where he's gone or how he fares
 Nobody knows and nobody cares But 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
