SingsIrish Songs I Hear a Drum (1974)--info wanted (10) RE: I Hear a Drum (1974)--info wanted 22 Jun 05


I didn't word the above very well... I spoke with my music teacher who taught my class this group of songs and she recently did a clear out of her old music and seems to have gotten rid of it (bummer!)

If it would help, a few lines from the title song are:

I hear a drum/ calling all to come/ join the fight/ for the right/ to live in liberty.
No more tax on tea/ no more tyrrany/ if need be we will die to be free.
Leave your farm/ leave your store/ your wives and family/ for a brand new army of citizens are we.
Bring your musket/ your powderhorn/ your daring due(?) and come/ with your spirits high/ obey the call of the drum.

Thanks again.

Mary
