Lyric Boston Tea Party

[The Sensational Alex Harvey Band]
(Alex Harvey)

Chorus
Are you going to the party?
Are you going to the Boston Tea Party?

Redcoats in the village
There s fighting in the streets
The Indians and the mountain men, well
They are talking when they meet
The king has said he s gonna put a tax on tea
And that s the reason you all Americans drink coffee

Chorus

Fire in the mountains, flames upon the heath
And the president spits out the news
He s biting on wooden teeth
The children of the colonies
Got a different tale to tell
I m going down to the city
Tell my folks I m doing well

Chorus

Bringing back the buffalo to the long prairie
Bringing back the fishes swimming in the sea
The children of the colonies
Got a different tale to tell
I m going down to the city
Tell my folks I m doing well

Chorus
