Lyrics:

[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
