Revolutionary War Songs

One of the assignments for US History I this week was to take some information they learned in class and create a song out of it. You've absolutely got to hear the song Brandy created to the tune of Michael Jackson's "Thriller."

“Boston”

by Brandy Schaeffer

To the tune of “Thriller”

 

It’s close to midnight

And Paul Revere hears a signal by the Brits

Under the moonlight

He jumps on top his horse and rides along.

He tries to scream

But the minutemen already see the lanterns

They start to freeze

As Britain looks them right between the eyes

They’re paralyzed

 

‘Cuz this is Boston! Boston yeah,

And no one’s gonna save you from the Brits about to strike

Ya know it’s Boston! Boston, yeah

You’re fighting for your life within a minute’s notice

 

You hear the gun shot

And you realize the war has just begun

You feel your heart beat

And wonder if this is really it

You close your eyes

And hope that this is all imagination

But all the while

A British soldier’s sneaking up behind, you’re out of time 

Chorus
